If you’re on the hunt for the ultimate coastal getaway – a private slice of paradise to enjoy for yourself (and perhaps a few guests) – then look no further than this property, affectionately known as Bangalay. 

Across an enormous six hectares, including 300 metres of water frontage, are endless mature eucalypts trees, rolling green lawns, a beautiful citrus orchard, a garden kitchen and three existing structures, as well as a beautifully appointed four-bedroom, three-bath residence, a self-contained two-bedroom cottage and a separate shed or workshop. 

Given the main home sits just 30 metres from the riverbank, each room has been designed to make the most of the magical blue vistas of water and sky, broken only by the tree line of the surrounding bushland. The kitchen and living area is an especially phenomenal area with three sides wrapped in glass no less than four and a half metres tall. 

The separate cottage also maintains wraparound views and a sunlit balcony. If a tree change is what you need, then renting this out as holiday accommodation is a business venture to fund your new lifestyle and is worth looking into.

Price guide: $2 million-$2.5 million
