Likened to living in The Hamptons, this four-bedroom beachfront home is a sanctuary.

Not your typical round, rectangle or kidney-shaped, this angular pool (and spa) with waterfall feature stands out for its uniqueness.

Built by Chris Duthy of DUTHY HOMES, it’s just one of the drawcards of this property but the best bit? You have direct beach access, so can run between the ocean, the pool and the spa all day long.
