About this property

Forty Paces - beautiful beach house

Designer beach house, beautiful views, north facing, located on the best part of Culburra Beach with safe swimming, pet friendly, huge deck and garden...

Forty Paces offers the perfect place to unwind in luxurious yet welcoming comfort. It has beeen lovingly renovated, impeccably styled and thoughtfully appointed, all with the guest in mind. It's the little things like the fireplace, the hot outdoor shower and the Nespresso coffee machine that make this house feel like a home. From the moment you walk in the door, the stunning water view, the salty air and the sound of the crashing waves, lets you know you're on holiday.

Ideally positioned, facing north, it is a short stroll from the back gate to the patrolled flagged area or to the more sheltered Tilbury Cove. Culburra Beach is pet friendly, so the 4.5km of sandy shore is doggy paradise. You may just be lucky enough to spot a whale or even swim with the dolphins that are often seen close to shore.

With two bedrooms, two living areas and two bathrooms the house works perfectly for a family or friends. Having a separate space for the kids works brilliantly and is a rarity in a holiday house. Cleverly designed, Forty Paces is an extremely adaptable space that also suits those looking for a more intimate and romantic getaway.

The large level fenced backyard is equally as exciting for the four legged family member as it is for the kids. The gardens have been designed with the prettiest of native plants that entice the incredible birdlife in the area, the Black Cockatoo a firm favourite. With front and rear decks, the house provides options for outdoor living depending on the weather.

Once you've stayed at Forty Paces you'll want to come back, again and again and again.

You can never tire of that view!
Desperate to escape a gloomy Adelaide winter and a hectic work calendar I bundled my Border Collie, Gracie into the car and headed to Forty Paces collecting my mother from rural NSW along the way. Forty Paces was exactly the mid winter haven I desired. A beautiful property extremely well maintained and everything you need for a relaxing and comfortable stay at your finger tips. Bronwyn, the host was lovely to deal with right from the beginning of our booking. She went out of her way to make us feel welcome and comfortable. She showed genuine care that our long journey was safe. Gracie loved her daily walks on the pristine beach a mere stones throw from the back deck. A wonderful home to wile away the hours buried in a book or simply watching the water.

The perfect beach house
We honestly could not fault Forty Paces for the quintessential beach house holiday. The location and view are incredible, with the beach just a short stroll from the back gate. The big back yard was a huge win for both kids and dog, and the icing on the cake was whale watching from the deck. Everything has been thought of, and the house is well equipped and spotless. Bron was so lovely and amazing with all communication. We would love to stay here again in a heartbeat, what a special place.

Idyllic getaway a few hours from Sydney
The first thing you notice as you walk through Forty Paces is the perfect gap in the trees for an ocean view beyond. A spacious living area with comfy sofas and large dining table open to a deck where we spent loads of time listening to the waves and staring at the water. Being there 5 days in a nonpeak period incl a weekend, no one was around us so very quiet. The yard was great for our dogs to have a run and explore and they loved running along the sand off-leash. The water is hot, bed firm and kitchen well equipped. Actually there are so many thoughtful extras - beach umbrella, coffee machine with loads of pods, baby furniture, books, magazines, games, binoculars to name a few.

Forty Paces
The house is clean, comfortable and well organised just across the road from a dog friendly beach. The back deck is great to soak up the winter sun.
