3 Bedroom House in Culburra Beach

Pets stay for free
Welcome to the excitingly exuberant beach house 'Portsea'! Sister to the extremely sought after 'Lucy's Escape' at Culburra. Named and designed with the famous beach boxes of Portsea Victoria in mind this newly renovated and custom built home has been painstakingly crafted with the holiday guest at the fore. Only 50m from direct access to beautiful Culburra Beach and situated in a street that is a member of the "Golden Mile" stretch, this delightful home awaits for you to make it your beach house!
'Portsea' is a wildly different home that has at its heart an enormous outdoor entertaining area that needs to be seen to be believed, 140 square metres of timber decking awaits you, facing north and receiving beautiful sun no matter what the season. Following the vibrant colours and designs of the beach boxes the rear elevation of the property is a replica of those boxes and each gable has been individually mastered with its own individual design and colour palate.
The first level of decking is completely undercover and is "all weather". It boasts a feature wall that is a handcrafted work of art using timber, colour and glass tiles, an enormous timber dining table, lounge area for coffee or breakfast, a BBQ with two gas bottles (always available), and a sink with running hot and cold water. Access to main living area is via huge glass sliding doors. Lighting can also be of your choice, 'SCG" lighting, romantic soft lighting or bunker lighting. Dining will be an exceptional experience no matter what the weather or time of day!
On the second level of decking you will find sunbeds, just perfect for those lazy days in the sun or that "cheeky" afternoon nap. It is also where you will find the most amazing outdoor shower with privacy screen and an explosion of colour that will have you showering outside under the 'Milky Way' .
On the third and final level there is a 'Retro' caravan fully decked out with TV, bar sink, fridge and beanbags for simply "chilling" or a place for the kids to play.
**NOTE: Fireplace (as seen in photos) is ornamental only, not available for use.
All this is surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens and manicured lawns . Dog owners will also rest easy knowing that the rear garden is fully enclosed by six foot fences and full length lockable side gates. No escapees! (PLEASE NOTE: Any form of camping, tents, plastic inflatable pools, tarps, 'SLIP n SLIDES' etc are not allowed in garden under any circumstance due to possible lawn damage)
Internally the house revolves around a combined living/dining area that flows seamlessly onto the outside undercover entertaining area. It has quirky inclusions such as lead light feature windows and a feature wall lit by portrait lighting. A large comfy sofa, TV (Chromecast), Blu-Ray, DVD's and a stereo that is iPod and Blu Tooth compatible are supplied for your enjoyment, reverse cycle aircon for your comfort. An extensively supplied kitchen, is part of this great space. Inclusions are full fan forced oven, induction cook top, microwave, coffee machine (BYO Dolce Gusto pods) and dishwasher.
Sleeping arrangements for up to 8 have been catered for by one large master bedroom with its own gorgeous ensuite shower room and TV. Tastefully decorated this space flows effortlessly onto the undercover deck via a large sliding glass door, bringing the outside in. Reverse cycle air conditioning is also fitted in this room. A second queen room exists along with a bedroom that contains two low line bunk beds (Australian Standards) sleeping four. These bunks are not "kiddie" size bunks they are standard singles with spring mattresses, suitable for all ages. Master bedroom and other queen room are discretely separate ensuring privacy.
All additional bedrooms are serviced by a generous shower room that also houses the integrated laundry. This includes washing machine and sink. All pegs, laundry detergent, basket, iron/ironing board and cleaning equipment are supplied.
'Portsea' has been meticulously crafted to enhance the stay of our guests. We take exceptional pride in our homes and what they offer including cleanliness and upkeep (see Reviews Lucy's Escape). The proximity to the beach and the local village, which includes Woolworths, is exceptional. We hope you choose to visit and possibly return!

Summary: We had such a nice stay at Portsea. The house was so clean and fresh, the yard was a dream for our dog, and the beach was literally a few steps away. So many thoughtful inclusions like the wash area in the front yard perfect for rinsing off sandy feet & dogs legs, the tv and beanbags in the caravan where the kids loved hanging out, the outdoor shower where our son could warm up after the beach and a kitchen with everything you could need. We loved our time here & we’re already planning our return! Thank you Kim & Chris :)

Summary: We stayed for 7 nights, but unfortunately by lunchtime the day after our arrival, the heavens opened up and, apart from some brief respite, persisted for our entire holiday break, dumping over 230mm. The great part of all this was our accommodation, which, while spacious enough indoors, had a large covered outdoor area which contained an 8 seater table and chairs, BBQ, sink, and sun lounges and chairs which could be taken to the lawn. Being only a few minutes walk to the beach, the kids and I braved the elements (we were going to get wet anyway) and headed to the beach during the lighter rainfall periods. The kids also had their own 'escape' playing in an old caravan in the yard which had a tv and comfy cushions. Apart from the rain, which battered all the NSW coast, we had a terrific stay. The owner is also very accommodating with any requests you may have. Thank you.

Summary: This property was a dream for a family with small kids and a dog. It’s secure, clean and the garden is lovely - the kids had a ball in the caravan and outdoor shower after a trip to the beach. The kitchen was really well equipped also. There are a lot of thoughtful touches, safe bunk beds which made our preschooler feel very grown up, and a short pleasant walk to Culburra Beach. Thanks to Kim for our stay. Communication was quick and we appreciated the late checkout as well! Can’t wait for our next visit.

Summary: The house was amazing and the facilities fantastic. We were three adults, two children and two dogs. So easy to relax outside, where we spent most of our time when we weren't at the beach. The dog friendly beach is such a short walk from the house and the kids and dogs had a great time playing in the surf. Fabulous back garden, well fenced and so private. Lots of room inside, good size bedrooms and the boys loved the bunk beds, a new experience for them! We will return as we had such a wonderful time.
