Single Family Home/House Gerringong Australia

That’s the spirit embodied by this very generous five‑bedroom, four‑bathroom residence on an expansive north‑facing block at the very end of a quiet cul‑de‑sac. With more than 30 metres of street frontage, exceptional privacy and off‑street parking for approximately ten vehicles, this is a coastal haven designed for easy living, multi‑generational flexibility and effortless entertaining.

The property’s scale is immediately apparent: the home is set well back from the street, with wide boundaries and deep lawns and a sense of openness rarely found so close to town. Boats, caravans, trailers - there’s room for all of them without compromising the home’s clean, crisp aesthetic or its relaxed coastal vibe.

A standout feature is the semi‑detached one‑bedroom unit - complete with sitting room, bathroom, kitchen, private entrance and undercover terrace. Operated for many years as the highly rated and in-demand ’Gerringong Bed and Breakfast’, it offers an established income stream ready to continue, build upon or repurpose for extended family living.

Inside the main residence, the ground level is anchored by a double garage with remote door, offering internal access to the upper floor for convenience and added security. Multiple under‑house storage rooms provide exceptional space for tools, surfboards, bikes, hobby equipment or workshop setups - a coveted bonus in any home.

Upstairs, the home unfolds into a series of light‑filled, beautifully considered spaces. The principal bedroom suite is completed by an ensuite, walk‑in wardrobe and dressing room as well as direct access to the front verandah - a peaceful spot to enjoy morning sun and ocean breezes. A second bedroom at the rear includes its own kitchenette and ensuite, ideal for multi‑generational families, long‑term guests or with the potential (STCA) to expand the B&B accommodation. A dedicated media room with independent reverse‑cycle air conditioning sits at the centre of the floor plan, offering a cosy retreat for movie nights or quiet downtime.

The main living and dining zone spans the front of the home, opening directly to the verandah and framed by screened louvre windows that invite natural light and coastal airflow. Ceiling fans and reverse‑cycle air conditioning work in harmony with Gerringong’s famed sea breezes for year‑round comfort.

The kitchen is a true highlight - a crisp, coastal‑inspired space designed by the current owner, a professional chef. White shiplap‑accented cabinetry, stone benchtops, mirrored splashback and industrial-inspired pendant lighting create a fresh, modern aesthetic. Two sinks (including an oversized butler’s sink), a freestanding Ilve oven with gas range, and a walk‑in pantry/scullery make this a dream workspace. Large glazing provides servery‑style access to the undercover terrace, forming a seamless connection to the home’s expansive outdoor entertaining zone.

Out back, the fully fenced mineral-salt swimming pool delivers on the resort-style promise. Featuring recently upgraded filtration and chlorination systems, the pool sits alongside lush lawns and a large covered terrace - perfect for long summer days with family and friends.

Gerringong offers an enviable lifestyle shaped by beaches, coastal walks, boutique cafés, wineries and a warm village community. With easy access to Werri Beach, Boat Harbour, local schools and the motorway, 8 Illoura Place offers a rare blend of privacy, flexibility and coastal ease - a true oasis ready for its next chapter.
