About this listing

The Sanctuary is unparalled on the Northern Beaches, situated on one of the largest direct beach access blocks in Sydney. Bathed in sun all day, and with gardens leading directly down to the rock pools and golden sands of north Avalon Beach, the perfect beachside escape awaits.

As can be expected from a property of this magnitude, privacy is delivered from the moment you enter the sandstone gates.
Divided into two separate accommodation wings the home offers a huge central living area that includes the kitchen, dining area and open fire. Off each side of the living room there are two separate outdoor entertaining areas to capitalize on the best conditions that the Northern Beaches weather offers. Under floor heating in the living area.

Relax, enjoy your breakfast and watch the surf and the children while they play in the sand and the surf on the large terrace. A second courtyard area is drenched in sun all day long and also has another BBQ and full outdoor setting while still affording views straight through to the beach.

The western wing offers two large bedrooms, the master room with king bed has unrivalled views of the beach, a separate walk in robe and bathroom. There is also a spa room on this side of the house with shower, bathroom and fully heated eight person spa pool.

The eastern wing includes three very large bedrooms and an additional open-plan casual living space with incredible views of the beach. This area is ideal for the children and/or nanny. Each bedroom has an oil heater for the cooler months and feather down quilts. The central core of the house is the perfect meeting point for the entire family. Sit down and enjoy a meal at the rustic family dining table or relax in style either on the lounge or out on the terrace just soaking up the view.

This uniquely-located home is minutes from the well-known village atmosphere at Avalon. Enjoy the many cafes, restaurants and wide variety of shopping. It is also within walking distance of Whale Beach and Palm Beach, starting off in the Careel Headland Reserve, as well as the boating paradise of Pittwater.
The Sanctuary will provide you with the holiday destination of a lifetime.

Perfection!

Luci | 20th May 2024
4.9/5

We were so lucky to stay in this amazing property with our family after our wedding. It was the perfect place to show our family this beautiful part of the Australia. As soon as you walk through the doors you feel the wow factor. The property is set up well for different couples due to the two separate sleeping wings, and the dining/lounge in the middle where we can meet up to sit by the fire and enjoy the view. We are hoping to be back each year for our anniversary!

Beautiful home & great experience

I was so grateful to have stayed at The Sanctuary with my loved ones for a very special occasion. Laura & the team were extremely helpful in working with me to find the perfect home for what I was after, well in advanced of my stay. The Sanctuary itself is exactly as described, a beautiful, peaceful sanctuary. The location is incredible, the home is clean and very well proportioned and the sunrises, sunsets & sound of the ocean were amazing. Thank you to the wonderful team & owners for my stay.

The Perfect Weekend Away

A group of beautiful girlfriends, beautiful house and an even more beautiful view!!! This house is stunning and has prime position on Avalon Beach with everything you could possible need for the perfect weekend away. This house is perfectly set up to never leave it (apart from for swims:) but it's great that the shops are so close for anything you need. The kitchen is really well stocked with everything you need to cook for the weekend. Definitely one of our faves!!

Excellent Family Holiday

We had a fabulous family Christmas at The Sanctuary. The kids loved being able to walk everywhere and we loved watching them play on the beach from the front deck. House was the perfect venue for our family. We will be back!

Stunning and relaxing house and location.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with our family in this beautiful home. We were staying here to attend our daughter's weekend wedding so we were all feeling very excited. It was a wonderful house that felt so relaxed and easy and that made our weekend feel even more special. Such a great feeling to sit back and enjoy the view and ambience that balanced the excitement. The staff were very kind and friendly and even treated us with some chocolates and bubbles as a gesture of congratulations.

Just Amazing Location and Views

Just an amazing place - fantastic views of the ocean from so many parts of the house make this place quite unique. Its also enormous, which is perfect for a grwon up family or multiple couples. Avalon is a great village with everything you need just 10 minutes walk away. we would definitely love to stay here again, but perhaps not in the height of summer as the lack of aircon in the bedrooms did make it hard to sleep on the few hot still nights that we had (the only reason why the place lost one star)

Paradise!

What a dream is was to spend the weekend here...there was a Christmas tree and decorations around the mantelpiece which put us straight in Christmas holiday mode! We arrived to a fresh bouquet of lilies, chocolates and a botte of champagne in the fridge. Absolute luxury - we'll be back!

'Wonderful property, idyllic location.

Thank you for having us stay in your beautiful home... What a wonderful home to spend the weekend in creating memories with our family after the sydney lockdown! The property was fully stocked with everything we needed. Pantry basics, products in all the bathrooms and beautiful, fresh linen. Outdoor area great for entertaining and even when it rained on our last day there was firewood in the house to stay warm. Just incredible. We hope to return :)

This is one of the most stunning properties on the Northern Beaches

This is one of the most stunning properties on the Northern Beaches. From the moment you approach the house, your eye is drawn to the magnificent views of Avalon Beach and the surf. The house is absolutely beautiful and has tonnes of space. Everything is beautiful from the bed linen to plates and everything in between. When I arrived, there was a beautiful welcome pack and champagne chilling - I went straight out to the deck with my glass of champagne and watched the ocean. I booked the house in winter but with the underfloor heating, massive fire place and outside fire pit, there were never any issues. Perfect location to walk to Avalon - I found the house so stunning though I never wanted to leave and had dinner every evening on the massive deck with a glass of wine by the fit pit later on.

This really is a sanctuary!
