Neatly tucked away, just off the Heysen Trail between Tunkalilla Head and Deep Creek on Tunkalilla beach, the property houses a three-bedroom home that was built in 1991.

It has been designed in such a way that all the rooms make the most of the views. There are also two ocean-facing decks and new large rear deck.

The current owners, who have lived here for over four years, have significantly improved the home and grounds with a new kitchen, bathroom and deck areas and roof insulation.

“It’s one of those unique locations that’s very hard to leave. It captures you instantly as you watch the dolphins jumping through the waves … it’s quite hypnotic,” Mr Smith said.

“While it’s been a permanent home for the vendors, we have had a lot of inquiries from buyers who are keen on a holiday home. In fact, it’s my busiest property of the year.”

The property also has a large double garage with workshop that could be converted for additional accommodation.
