AUSTRALIAN big wave surfer Ross Clarke-Jones is selling his stylish Jan Juc abode.

The surfing legend, pictured, that caught a 40m monster wave at the Nazare break in Portugal earlier this year, will be selling his Surf Coast base at 2 Sky Court at auction.

The four-bedroom house with two large living areas and a covered outdoor entertainment area is one of few Jan Juc properties that enjoy the Bob Pettit Reserve as its backyard.
