The Great Escape

3 Sep 2021

With recent shifts in lifestyle fueled by the pandemic, there’s been a surge in Sydneysiders leaving the city and opting for a sea or tree change. The rising cost of housing and lifestyle changes are prompting a shift with many people now working from home meaning they can move away from the city, have more space and be closer to nature and the great outdoors. For many, hybrid working between home and the office has made relocating to a place within easy reach of Sydney much more viable. One of the best spots within an hour’s drive of the city is the picturesque coastal village of Bundeena, 55km south of Sydney on the edge of the Royal National Park. Debbie Donnelley and Thomas Keenan have just listed a choice of three beautiful properties within easy commuting distance of the CBD by road or via a 20 minute ferry ride from Cronulla across the Port Hacking River.

Set on a sprawling 607sqm block, 16 Beachcomber Avenue, Bundeena is a renovated freestanding home with a price guide of $1.2m which is comparable to the cost of a two-bedroom apartment in Sydney. With a level child-friendly garden and loads of outdoor space, this is a fantastic opportunity to be part of the great Australian dream and own a home a 10 minute walk to the pristine white sands of Jibbon Beach and the ferry wharf.

Accessed via a gated driveway affording an impressive sense of arrival, 35 Neil Street, Bundeena is a waterfront masterpiece that’s reminiscent of a clifftop haven in the Aegean with its unobstructed water views, sun-washed flagstone terraces and blissful setting at the northern tip of the peninsula between Gunyah and Jibbon Beaches. The four-bedroom home rests on 850sqm approx in one of the best positions in Bundeena with views that will never be built out and nature at the doorstep.

The first time available in decades, 11-13 Neil Street, Bundeena is a waterfront estate on a 1,254sqm landholding with two houses on one block. Debbie says, “This sprawling cliffside property is the ultimate coastal getaway with 180 degree northerly views to the ocean with Jibbon Beach virtually at the doorstep. The freestanding home is dedicated to relaxed beach living while a separate two storey guest house makes it ideal as a home and income opportunity or a perfect family compound.”
