About this property

Retro Beach House on Pearl Beach

Contemporary, interior-designed coastal retreat located within walking distance of Pearl Beach on the NSW Central Coast, just 90-minutes drive north of Sydney.

Decorated by renowned interior designer and stylist, Roberta Easton, the original 1950’s beach shack has been lovingly restored into a modern beach house with a retro twist, large sundeck and garden.

Featuring comfortable furnishings, an eclectic collection of wall art and Kiwiana, this well-appointed holiday house is perfect for a beachside midweek break, weekend away with friends, couples escape, honeymoon, family holiday or writer’s retreat.

Walking distance from the beach, café, general store and the Sydney Morning Herald hatted restaurant, Pearls on the Beach. Close to nearby attractions including bushwalks, Bouddi National Park, Patonga and the Crommelin Native Arboretum.

No pets allowed.

Sheets and Towels are not provided. We can put you in touch with a local linen service if needed.

Beautiful home, very cosey. The rooms and the rest of the house were very clean and tidy. Check in was smooth, we really enjoyed our stay. The house has everything you need from blankets, beach towels, cups, plates, cutlery, games, cd player. Great attention to detail, with beautiful artistic vibe to it. Very close to pearl beach, you can just hear the waves from outside the house.

Spacious beach property with everything you could need.

We had a lovely beach stay at the property- it was bigger than expected, well equipped and the styling was super cute. My son loved the basket of trains to play with. Dale was helpful was sorting things out for our stay. Definitely recommend

Annual treat retreat

We always book a week in Pearl at the beginning of the year to rest and reset. This is by far our favourite house. Everything you need, close to the beach and instant holiday feel from the moment you arrive. Thanks for hosting us again. We will be back!
