We have another rare opportunity to buy your dream family or retirement home in Blacksmiths, a lazy 260 metre stroll from the rolling surf at pristine Blacksmiths beach. Living is easy in this laidback, beachside hamlet ... waking up to the sounds of the ocean from the 9 miles of white sand and crystal clear surf just around 300m away, in a suburb of around 1000 people - you may never need to go on holiday again! Imagine being able to stroll the beach for a dip, or to walk your fur baby (Blacksmiths is a dog-friendly beach) before you join the rest of the world ... just you and about 5 other people, starting the day in the way we all envy, stress-free and at one of the most beautiful stretches of coastline that NSW has to offer. Come home and wash the sand off in your HOT and cold outdoor shower. Invite your friends over for a BBQ and relax in any of the spacious living areas, or in the covered outdoor entertaining area where the afternoon breeze carries the sound of the surf with it.
