Seacliff House is set on five acres of environmentally zoned land meaning the views can never be built out. What’s more impressive though is the 360 degree 500 acre plus view of the land we are surrounded by. It neighbours a working dairy farm to the north and a Wagyu beef farm across the highway. Seacliff has an approved DA to run weddings and events on our property so no matter where you choose to get married, make sure that the venue is compliant with their local council.
The house was built in the late 1980’s and purchased by current owners Brendan and Amanda in 2015, which over a short period of time lightened the house with skylights and a colour palate to reflect the open spaces around the property. Both avid decorators, the house has been furnished to give it that home away from home feeling. It’s homely, comfortable and offers great social spaces for entertaining. Both Brendan and Amanda feel that a home, holiday or not, takes time to build and you have to acquire pieces slowly if you want that space to feel special. They feel that Seacliff House has been able to achieve that goal. Friends, family and guests of Seacliff have a feeling of being relaxed the moment that they drive in.
The house features five bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms and is a contemporary designed property.
In November 2017, the properties old farm shed was converted into a stunning Barn, which encompasses the stunning ocean views Seacliff House is renowned for. Floor to ceiling black steel framed windows will run for over 20 metres along the eastern view side of the barn and will feature concrete floors and an inviting sandstone fireplace for the cooler months.
We look forward to welcoming you.
