** Private Inspections Welcomed ** Beautifully transformed from top to bottom and just a relaxed stroll to the beach, life at this South Golden Beach home really is as good as it sounds. Only 200 metres away lies one of the most pristine, uncrowded stretches of coastline on the Northern Rivers - and when you're not there, you're surrounded by a lush, tropical garden so private and immersive it feels like your own secluded oasis. Come inside First impressions here make a statement - and then some. Arriving feels like stepping into a boutique tropical resort: palms swaying overhead, a meticulously landscaped pebbled garden, and a bespoke timber gate that opens to reveal a private garden sanctuary beyond. From the very first moment, you know you've arrived somewhere special. Step inside and the kitchen instantly steals the show. Newly designed from scratch with no compromises, it features a striking Marmorino or Stucco-style plaster finish across the feature wall, splashback and island bench-a stunning, textural centrepiece that anchors the entire open-plan living and dining space. Everything is new. Oven, dishwasher (Fisher & Paykel, just four months old), sink, fridge, rangehood, workbenches - all sleek, sealed and finished with modern black fittings throughout. The ceiling fan hums softly, natural light floods in through expansive windows, and suddenly cooking dinner feels less like a task and more like a pleasure. The living and dining area flows seamlessly out to the covered deck - and this deck truly deserves its own moment. Architecturally designed with a distinctive roofline, it overlooks the landscaped garden and is wrapped in greenery on all sides. This is where mornings begin with coffee, afternoons stretch into long lunches, and evenings linger well past sunset. An everyday space that feels like a holiday. Sleep, rest, retreat A beautiful timber staircase leads you to the master bedroom - a genuine parent's retreat. With its own private deck, it's the perfect spot for a quiet cuppa while listening to the gentle sound of waves drifting in from the beach. The ensuite has been completely reimagined with large-format tiles, elegant insets and quality black tapware. Calm, considered and effortlessly stylish - spaces designed to help you slow down. Downstairs, the generous rumpus room opens directly to the garden through two sets of sliding doors. It's a blank canvas full of possibility: artist's studio, yoga space, home gym or creative retreat. There's also a dedicated home office that makes working from anywhere else feel like a compromise. Step outside at lunchtime, breathe in the tropics, then ease back into your day - you'll never want to commute again. The practical side Double lock-up garage with remote access. NBN connected. Split-system air conditioning. Smeg 900mm oven with induction cooktop. An outdoor shower- an absolute must for the beachside lifestyle you're about to embrace.
