If you're a rich American surfer, where else you wanna park your money? The Ranch?
The absurdly pretty coastal hamlet of Angourie, a calming refuge five clicks from the burgeoning town of Yamba, is one e of those rare enclaves that has resisted the siren call of development.
Curbless streets, rocks pools, lawns a luminous green, everyone knows everyone, two world-class waves. If you’ve ever seen the 1971 surf classic Morning of the Earth, you’ll know the sequence of Baddy Treloar hacking the point to bits on a board he made in his backyard to the John J Francis song Simple Ben.
The birth of country soul.
Me and my gal used to vacay in Angourie from our Gold Coast base in the nineties and the beachfront villa we always chose was one of Webber’s joints right there on The Crescent, a few hundred bounces from Spooky’s Point and Angourie Point just after that.
Epic places designed by Paul Witzig with oaring ceilings, wrap-around decks, ocean cameos etc.
Webber being the daddy of master shaper Greg, as well as the almost as storied Will, Monty, John and Ben.
Old man Webber, in his nineties now, is selling 1a & 1b/19 The Crescent, Angourie, currently two separate apartments, price guide somewhere between $1.7 to two mill Australian, and, well, let’s colour our lives with the selling literature and some photos.
Award winning Architect design. Close to sheltered beaches, world-class surf, quaint cafes, and the famed Angourie Pools
Wake to the gentle rhythm of rolling waves and salt-laced sea breezes in this elevated Angourie retreat, where each day begins and ends with the ocean. Set within the breathtaking surrounds of Angourie Nature Reserve and Yuraygir National Park, these beach apartments are snuggly nestled within the relaxed seaside village where nature, community, and simplicity define the lifestyle.
Angourie is more than a destination – it’s a way of living. A place where mornings start with a swim or surf, neighbours exchange easy conversation, and the pace of life slows to match the tide. Endless blue horizons, coastal greenery, and that unmistakable holiday feeling become part of your everyday.
Designed by Award winning Architect Paul Witzig, the building embraces its natural setting. The three-level, treehouse-inspired, dual apartment home feels immersed in its surroundings. The alfresco deck is the heart of it all – private, peaceful, and framed by greenery – perfect for slow mornings with coffee, long, sunlit lunches, and relaxed evenings as the ocean hums in the background.
The lower apartment offers two generous bedrooms and a welcoming, open-plan living space, paired with a renovated bathroom-ideal for family or guests. Two private courtyards open onto the native gardens.
The upstairs apartment offers 1 bedroom and a mezzanine (loft) bedroom. The light-filled kitchen and living room flows seamlessly onto a wrap-around veranda. Here, indoor and outdoor living blend effortlessly, inviting cooling sea breezes and soft, background murmur of conversations emanating from the village café.
A striking timber staircase leads to a private mezzanine retreat. With warm timber floors and ceilings, this elevated sanctuary sits among the treetops, capturing Pacific views and offering a quiet place to unwind-your own secluded escape above it all.
Outside, the lifestyle continues with private gardens that invite creativity and calmness, perfect for those who enjoy nurturing their own green space. A lock-up garage and additional carport provide practical ease, completing the home’s thoughtful design.
Life here is shaped by the coastline. The nearby Yuraygir Coastal Walk invites daily adventures, winding past untouched beaches, headlands, and coastal lakes. Walk the trail at the right time of the year and you’re sure to enjoy the bloom of native heath and catch sight of dolphins and migrating whales.
Angourie remains one of Australia’s most appealing coastal villages, home to the renowned Angourie Point-a world-class wave within a protected National Surfing Reserve. Spend your days exploring quiet beaches or swimming in the iconic Angourie Blue and Green Pools, a unique natural sanctuary beloved by locals.
This is more than a just a home – it’s a dual dwelling that provides unique options and it’s an opportunity to belong to something special. A coastal village community, a connection to nature, and a lifestyle where every day feels effortlessly like a holiday.
