This Luxury Home Is A Lighthouse That Overlooks The Pacific Ocean

It’s not exactly a lighthouse, but the amply-lit home is a restful sanctuary for the weary soul with panoramic ocean views.

The Avalon Lighthouse is perched atop Bangalley Head, located between Avalon Beach and Whale Beach on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. It’s not exactly a lighthouse, but the amply-lit home is a restful sanctuary for the weary soul.

The Avalon Lighthouse: A Restful Beacon For The Tired Soul

Overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the home features floor-to-ceiling glazings that allow as much light in during daytime as it does out at night. An architect-designed interior littered with accents of Morocco and Greece welcomes guests to a space reminiscent of calm vantages from the Santorini and vibrant character of the Blue City. Equipped with heated concrete floors, the space is even more welcoming as guests may find a curved stairwell where sunlight pours in during the day, winding up to the rest areas on the above floor.

At the center of the space lies a kitchen complete with an island for guests to whip up a storm, or just to gather around for little sit-downs. The kitchen eye-lines the private pool and living area which expands to a sea-breezy outdoor terrace with a wood-fired pizza oven and garden patio for those perfect sunset gatherings.

The house offers four bedrooms, with a Master Suite from which a panoramic view of Bangalley Head can be taken in from both the King bed and en-suite bath.

An outdoor shower adds a touch of convenience and hygiene after a swim at Avalon Beach, which is a mere 5 minute walk away. The North Avalon shops are also along the way, where a local favourite cafe Relish is a delightful brunch spot. With the Bangalley Head Walking Track at the doorstep, the more adventurous can take a little hike up the headland which offers a spectacular view at the ascend.

Incidentally, the pool is heated in summer via solar energy but not during winter. Air-conditioning is absent in the home that captures the ocean breeze. It is available at a default nightly rate of $2,000, via www.contemporaryhotels.com.au
