About this property
Nest, Cosy beach retreat, Midcentury beach shack • firepit • Netflix
Nest | Port Willunga is a mid-century beach shack, lovingly restored for the comfort of today's relaxed Australian beach life. Located in the exclusive Old Survey, Nest is only an 8min stroll to the soft white sand of Pt Willunga beach & the Star of Greece. Spend your mornings at the beach, stroll back to Nest for a warm outdoor shower followed by a day exploring McLaren Vale wineries. Or simply enjoy a picnic on the front lawn, nature-bathing in our Australian-Mediterranean garden
When you arrive at Nest | Port Willunga and step through driveway gate you will be peacefully mesmerized as your senses are delighted by the lush green gardens and fragrances that surround the entire property.
The tiered lawns bordered by beautiful gabion stone retaining walls and rosemary hedges create unique spaces to explore with in the yard. The new outdoor hot water shower under the big backyard tree is a standout feature for this Port Willy beach shack, so too is the salvaged wooden outdoor dining table under the fuchsia bougainvillea.
Enter this humble two bedroom shack by the side entry door to discover a home full of thoughtfully collected vintage pieces. The original raw wooden kitchen cabinets add warm and character to this unique beach house.
Dine at the beautiful teak dining table or lounge on the black leather sofa by the wood fire while you enjoy the front garden view and the grand old pines that line the street.
The glass double doors open up the living space to the recently extended front deck overlooking the tiered front lawn bordered by a sandstone wall and mature native trees.
Dining on the deck outdoor table or take the deck stairs down to the ground level for the outdoor sofa next to the Weber barbecue. Even better, get your picnic blanket and lay on the front lawn under the shade of the trees and watch the clouds float by.
Nest comfortably sleeps 5 adults across two bedrooms. Bedroom one has a queen bed with a garden view. Bedroom 2 also has a garden view with a bunk (two king single beds) and an additional freestanding king single bed. For families with infants, bedroom 2 can be set up with a portacot. Baskets of kids toys and books are also stored in bedroom 2.
The humble bathroom has a bath and shower with a separate toilet and second basin. The recently renovated laundry is located in a room at the back of the property next to the beautiful outdoor shower.
This place is the perfect holiday home for anyone looking for creative inspiration or simply a peaceful coastal escape immersed in nature.
