20 Wondaree Street, Rye, Vic 3941

Beachy-boho coastal hideaway with lucrative holiday rental appeal

Positioned at the crest of an elevated 622m2 (approx) coastal allotment gazing out across a canopy of treetops, 'Sandy Shanty' is an adorable lofty beachside abode pairing a suite of contemporary bespoke finishes with sustainable sensibilities.

Originally shipped over from Tasmania, the cottage is brimming with big ideas for small-inspired living, from the cork flooring to the bijou balcony. A sundrenched living area beneath a high cathedral ceiling with whitewashed beams is complemented by a powerful Blaze wood-fire heater with a small footprint.

The custom kitchen with tailor-made premium birch plywood and a floating stainless-steel-topped island is superbly equipped with an all-Smeg fit-out with oven, dishwasher and an induction cooktop, while outdoor dining will be sublime on the covered deck amid the beachside ambience.

The custom-designed birch finishes continue with a bespoke sofa with hideaway storage, two padded window bench seats, generous wardrobing, clever storage solutions and a home office nook.

An elegant and beachy-boho modern bathroom with marine plywood, encaustic-look cement tiling, a walk-in rainshower and rustic concrete basin provides a delightful supplement to this wonderfully unique residence, while an alfresco bathtub offers a soothing space to soak beneath the stars and festoon lights.

Currently thriving on Airbnb fetching $300+ per night (around $60,000 p/a) with constant bookings, the residence could practically pay for itself between your own getaways.

Just a few minutes' stroll to Peninsula Pantry and encircled by bay beaches, surf breaks, hot springs, fairways, wineries and horse-riding trails, the site is just 2 minutes' drive to all essential services, shops, restaurants, cafes and school of Rye town centre.

The property comes with two off-street parking spaces, raised veggie boxes and plenty of sublevel storage for surfboards and stand-up paddleboards.
