Elevated Coastal Retreat with Self-Contained Studio, just 450m to the Beach

Tucked away in one of Forresters Beach’s most tightly held pockets, this elevated coastal home feels like a private treehouse retreat – immersed in greenery, yet only 450 metres (approx.) to the sand.

Designed across split levels with soaring raked ceilings, the home offers warmth, character and light-filled living. The main living and dining zone opens seamlessly to a wraparound balcony, capturing leafy valley views and cooling sea breezes. It’s the kind of space where mornings start slowly with coffee on the deck and evenings finish by the fire.

The kitchen is fresh and functional with gas cooking, timber benchtops and a tranquil garden outlook – perfectly positioned to connect indoor and outdoor entertaining.

Accommodation in the main residence includes three well-proportioned bedrooms, highlighted by an upstairs master retreat with its own balcony and elevated outlook across the treetops. Two bathrooms service the home, while a separate self-contained studio with kitchenette and ensuite provides flexibility for guests, teenagers, extended family or additional income potential.

At the rear, a large covered entertaining terrace overlooks a level lawn framed by established gardens and natural bush backdrop – private, peaceful and perfect for family living.

With approximately 190sqm of internal living (as per plan), multiple outdoor spaces and genuine separation between the home and studio, this is a property that offers lifestyle, flexibility and long-term appeal.

Moments to Forresters Beach, close to Terrigal and coastal walking trails, yet quietly removed from the bustle – Hopetoun Street remains one of Forries’ best-kept secrets.
