An Amazing Getaway in Beautiful Rapid Bay.
If you're looking for a place to get away from the hustle and bustle of working life, then look no further than this beautifully presented solid brick home just 2 minutes walk from the breathtaking beach and shimmering sea. This amazing tightly held coastal location is ideal to truly switch off, relax and rest the mind and body, and with the bite of the summer sun on us, you can expect temperatures at around 3 - 5 degrees cooler than metro Adelaide.
The word rare perfectly fits this renovated and updated mid-century Bungalow, with less than 30 properties in total, real estate rarely becomes available and it's understandable why, when you are surrounded by some of mother nature's best work highlighted by the sea, sand, towering hills and hidden rock caves, and barely a sole to disturb you in this peaceful, secluded piece of paradise just 90 minutes to Adelaide City centre.
In addition to the stunning flora, you'll likely see dolphins, seals, whales, kangaroos and echidnas with bird life including wedge tail and sea eagles, kites, owls, rosellas, corellas, sulphur crested cockatoos, galahs, swallows and wrens.
Known for its jetty fishing with over 70 recorded species of fish visiting and a natural habitat for the leafy sea dragon, the historic jetty was storm damaged in 2004 and my owners rescued some of the timbers which they've included in their landscaping. Many of us have fished, (perhaps unsuccessfully), from either the original or new Jetty and many more will have holidayed at the waterfront camp ground.
Warm, inviting and fun interiors
- a wall-paper feature wall is a highlight of the lounge and dining room along with a combustion wood fire and reverse cycle split system air con
- the modern light filled kitchen offers a dishwasher, electric cooking and servery window
- 3 bedrooms are all flooded with natural light and each have ceiling fans
- the updated mid-century bathroom has a separate bath and shower
- the rear lobby or mud room is perfectly connected to the amazing outdoor spaces via sliding doors

Great outdoors
- one of the best outdoor spaces I've seen with multiple entertaining and play spaces!
- a big 10kw solar system currently crediting my owners account
- a hot and cold outdoor shower to wash away the sea salt or a handy second shower when you have a house full!
- the 'cool deck' verandah allows entertaining in any weather
- an outstanding fruit, vegie and herb garden offers a variety of year round produce
- landscaped beautifully, front and rear, with a mix of sun loving, low maintenance Mediterranean plantings, succulents and shade trees
- flat lawn for the kids or Fido to play on
- the return verandah offers more living space ideal for larger gatherings
- a modern garage with auto roller has extra high clearance for the caravan or boat
- 83,000 litres of rainwater plumbed to the house
Location
- around 90 minutes from Adelaide City and once the second stage of Main South Road from Aldinga to Sellicks is complete, that time will likely reduce
- 50 minutes or so to ever expanding Aldinga central with its variety of shopping, dining and other services available
- the town centres of Normanville and Yankalilla aren't far away and they'll assist with food, beverage, fuel and necessary amenities like medical, hairdressing and hardware too
- a general store at Delamere provides groceries and fuel
