“The owner has used it as an Airbnb for years but is now retiring from that,” Ms Shor said.

“It’s got great beach vibes and easy parking via the beach pass.”

The new owners are “country people who have bought a bolt holt between here and their country farm”.

The home offers casual beachside living just a stone’s thrown from the Bondi Pavillion and easy access to the suburbs’ amenities and transport. In other words the perfect weekender.

“Boasting a first-class position, you don’t get any better location than being literally across the road from the most spectacular beach in the entire world,” the listing read.

“Awash in heavenly north light this meticulously renovated ground floor apartment enjoys an incredibly sought-after lifestyle of sand, surf and sea.

‘Beach vibes.’

The home sits right opposite Bondi Beach.

“Well-loved and tightly held in the same family since 1987, this impeccable oasis has never been offered to the market and showcases effortless indoor/outdoor integration to a light drenched outdoor area.

“A superior oasis of timeless quality, comfort and privacy.”

Ms Shor said the sale showed that quality homes will continue to be fought over by buyers in the current market despite ongoing uncertainty over interest rates rises.

“Location will always win, this was an unbeatable address and situated across the road from the beach,” she said.

“It was a lifestyle purchase for the buyer and for the underbidder, the convenience and lifestyle are the clear standouts.”

According to PropTrack, the median unit price for Bondi Beach is $1.3m, that’s down 12.3 per cent over the past 12 months.
