Last chance to get into one of the great surfer houses…
Two months back, we ran what you might call an emotional pitch for the iconic Webber house in Angourie, a treehouse design by the architect Paul Witzig notable, among a hell of a lot of other things, for its soaring ceilings and wraparound decks in front of Spooky’s Point there.
So beautiful you want to weep every time you hand feed the kookaburras or count your steps, a few hundred or so, to the warm sand down the little pathway.
A real long time ago, another life, another wife, I used to swing on down from the Gold Coast for the filthiest of weekends, too much sun, too much tit, sorry that I haven’t writ etc, and would always choose one of the Webber apartments.
Old man Webber that is, owner of the spermatozoa that brought shaper and wavepool creator Greg Webber, as well as Will, Monty, Dan, Ben and John into the world.
Webber has officially got a price tag on the two joints, 1a & 1b/19 The Crescent, Angourie, and it’s cheap as hell, at least in my estimation, of 1.9 mill Australian dollars or 1.34m US.
Buy one, rent out the other, recline on that damn balcony and turn yourself into a crocodile handbag in between tunnelling in the warm Pacific out front.
Again, and a reminder, the agent’s selling pitch, not that it needs anything beyond a few photos and the video, which you might examine above.
Upstairs Apartment – 1 Bed + 1 Mezzanine, 1 Bath, 1 Garage Downstairs Apartment – 2 Bed, 1 Bath, 1 Carport 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.
With no real urgency surrounding the sale, although the old boy would like to cash out soonish, he’s in his nineties afterball, Greg Webber is trying to get at least one of his wavepools approved, in this case it’s a prototype in Portugal, so he can buy the joint himself.
Are there another nine BeachGrit readers out there who wanna chip in 130k apiece, along with me, for a slice of this pretty heaven?
