From the moment you step through the front gate, The Shack feels like a little escape from the ordinary.

Private, fully fenced and set on a 905m2 allotment, it has that easy coastal energy that makes you want to slow down. A little rustic, a little industrial and proudly quirky, this is the kind of place where sandy feet are welcome, the breeze drifts through and nobody's fussing over a bit of beach coming home with you.

Step inside and the freshly painted interior feels bright and refreshed, while still holding onto the raw charm that makes The Shack what it is. High ceilings, open-plan living and a layout with plenty of personality give you a relaxed base now, with loads of scope to make it completely your own.

The kitchen sits at the heart of the home, with a large island bench that naturally becomes the gathering point. Add a gas cooktop, dishwasher and generous workspace, and you've got a practical setup that still feels casual and social.

Then the house starts to open up.

A servery window and wide side door connect the living space to the outdoors, letting everything spill effortlessly onto the covered patio. Running the full length of one side of the home, the 3-metre-wide patio feels like another room altogether, just with more breeze.

Think morning coffee, post-beach barbecues, lazy afternoon drinks or disappearing into a shady corner with a book and nowhere else to be.

One of the bedrooms also opens directly onto the patio, adding another quirky little layer to the layout. Both bedrooms are generous, each with its own oversized ensuite, split-system air conditioning and built-in storage extending extra high to make the most of the space.

Tinted windows throughout add privacy and help soften the Queensland sun, while security screens keep things practical. The lounge has its own split-system air conditioning, and gas hot water services the home.

Back outside, there's room to dream without creating a second job.

The fully fenced block offers plenty of breathing room, with a small mower and tool shed for the practical bits and an extra-large double garage for vehicles, storage, bikes, boards, fishing gear and all the usual coastal-life clutter.

One of the front fence panels has also been purposely set up to be easily converted into a gate, giving you the option for future side access. There's room for a bigger shed, a pool, more tropical planting or whatever version of The Shack you want to create.
Solar panels help keep things efficient, while the roof was replaced approximately three years ago, adding another reassuring tick to this easy-care setup.

And that's the real charm of The Shack.

It's not cookie-cutter. It's relaxed, practical and full of possibility.

Live in it as it is. Escape here on weekends. Use it as a coastal base. Or take its rustic bones and turn it into something seriously special.

A bit quirky. A bit rustic. A whole lot of potential.
