Beach by the Dunes: Relaxing, contemporary beach house, walk to beach and river

Bask in coastal calm at this bright Goolwa Beach retreat, where sweeping dune views set the tone for easy days by the sea. The open living space flows to a sunlit deck for morning coffee, relaxed evening BBQs in the fully fenced backyard, or fire pit starry-night gatherings. Inside, cooling, heating and Wi-Fi ensure comfort year-round. Just minutes from the sand and a short walk to the Goolwa River, this home offers the perfect base for surf sessions, winery tours or scenic rides along the Middleton trail. Soft coastal tones, timber floors, and natural light define this relaxed beachside home designed for unwinding after sun-filled days. Upstairs, the open-plan living area is made for connection — sink into the sofa for a movie night on Netflix, or open the sliding doors to enjoy the sea air drifting in from the dunes beyond. Outdoors, a generous covered deck offers a perfect perch for afternoon drinks or leisurely breakfasts, while the fire pit area below sets the stage for evening storytelling under the stars. A BBQ and secure yard make it ideal for families or small groups. The primary bedroom is also located upstairs, offering a peaceful retreat with a queen bed, soft coastal styling and nearby bathroom access. Downstairs, a second living area provides a relaxed zone for games or movies, featuring a TV, lounge and full-size ping pong table. Sliding doors open to the secure backyard, creating a smooth indoor-outdoor connection ideal for families. Three additional bedrooms are located on this level — one with a queen bed, one with a double, and one fitted with two bunk beds, making the space versatile for groups or kids. Two bathrooms provide convenience with walk-in showers, a bathtub, toilets, and vanities, complemented by a third separate toilet. A full laundry with washer and dryer makes longer stays easy, and off-street parking allows you to come and go with ease.
