Description: Positioned directly on the foreshore of Port MacDonnell, this captivating dual residence property offers a rare opportunity to secure both a coastal lifestyle and a proven passive income stream. Overlooking the bay, this character rich home invites you to live where others holiday and to do so with style, flexibility, and return. Formerly known as Curio Cottage, the property comprises two attached yet independent residences, each with its own private access and personality. Previously operated as a highly successful Airbnb, Curio Cottage achieved an impressive 85% annual occupancy, highlighting the strong demand for premium short stay accommodation in this tightly held seaside township. Whether you choose to do a live-in BnB model, rent both dwellings, or further enhance the property for added versatility (STCA), the options here are as expansive as the ocean views. From its coveted position on Sea Parade, the property enjoys uninterrupted outlooks across the bay, with the Port MacDonnell Boat Ramp, skatepark, and playground immediately in reach. A short stroll delivers you to local favourites including The Bay Pizzeria, Tide Espresso, Salt cafe, the general store, pharmacy, and the much loved Victoria Hotel Bay Pub. World class fishing, spectacular surf at Browns Bay, and scenic coastal walks are all close by, while Mount Gambier sits just 20 minutes away. THE MAIN RESIDENCE: TIMELESS COMFORT MEETS COASTAL LUXURY (COTTAGE) The front garden offers an inviting introduction, opening to a bold glass façade that maximises the home's sweeping sea views. Just inside, a thoughtfully crafted timber seating and dining area creates the perfect vantage point to watch fishing boats drift in and out of the harbour. The main residence opens through a beautiful sitting room, an ideal space to relax in comfort, glass of wine in hand, while soaking in the ever changing seascape. Beyond, a carpeted open-plan living and dining area features high ceilings, contemporary pendant lighting, and reverse-cycle air conditioning, with an additional side entry enhancing natural flow. A sliding barn door leads to the heart of the home: a spacious, renovated kitchen finished with timber floating floors, solid white cabinetry, marble-look benchtops, and quality appliances. A double sink and under bench dishwasher overlook the rear garden while an electric oven and large gas cooktop sit beneath a crisp white tiled splashback, creating a kitchen that is both elegant and practical, perfect for entertaining by the sea. Just off the kitchen, the rustic style bathroom showcases a beautiful timber & glass door, timber vanity with storage, square porcelain basin, rain shower and toilet, combining character with modern convenience. Two bedrooms complete the main residence. The first, positioned between the kitchen and bathroom, features immaculately preserved floorboards and a built-in robe with stunning leadlight doors. The second bedroom, accessed from the lounge, enjoys gorgeous floorboards and captivating sea views, an idyllic retreat to wake up to. THE SECOND RESIDENCE: A BOUTIQUE COASTAL ESCAPE (UNIT) The unit can be accessed from both the front and rear of the property and immediately impresses with its light-filled, modern kitchen. Soft-touch white cabinetry, floating floorboards, and wall to wall windows frame expansive ocean views. An electric oven and gas cooktop sit opposite the entry, while a double sink with dishwasher lines the left side. A striking stainless steel and timber breakfast bar separates the kitchen from the living space, blending form and function. The cosy living room, with slanted ceilings, overlooks the kitchen and provides a welcoming retreat. At the rear, a queen-sized bedroom is accessed via a solid sliding door and features a private ensuite which includes a glass-framed shower, toilet, full width vanity with basin and mirror, and charming character flooring. A rear exit leads from the bathroom to a delightful alfresco area, an intimate space ideal for reading, relaxing, or enjoying the calming presence of the stone-wall water feature. GARDENS, ACCESS & ADDED FEATURES Vehicle accommodation is well considered, with a double carport separated by a dividing wall to provide private undercover parking for each dwelling, both fitted with roller doors one automatic and one manual. The main residence opens onto a lovely low maintenance garden complete with manicured lawns and beautifully curated coastal plantings. A garden shed is located at the rear of the second carport, and a rainwater tank services the unit, enhancing sustainability. Both residences are accessed from Sea Parade, with the double carport providing private entry from Riddoch Highway/Bay Road ensuring convenience and privacy for occupants and guests alike. The property has benefited from a series of thoughtful upgrades, including a new roof and self-cleaning gutters installed in 2022, new electrical wiring completed in 2021, a gas safety check carried out in 2023, and wool insulation, enhancing comfort, efficiency and long-term peace of mind for future owners.
