Currarong, New South Wales, Australia
'Old Spice' is owned by two families who have holidayed in the area for over 20 years, purchasing the house together in late 2018. We’ve named the house to reflect the early 80s vibe of the house, which, as you will see, we have leaned into a little. brbr'Old Spice' is a four bedroom, two-bathroom freestanding house about 100 metres from the water. It was substantially renovated over 2019 and 2020 to add new front and rear decks, a new bathroom and extra bedroom. brbrAmenities:br- Four bedrooms – 4 x queen beds, one bedroom also has a single bed and trundle - suitable for 10 people across all four rooms. br- Two bathrooms – one with toilet/bath/shower and one with toilet/shower only.br- Outdoor shower with hot and cold waterbr- Compact kitchen with electric stove/oven, microwave and dishwasher. br- Great lounge area on front deck with a view of the ocean (best in the morning)br- Dining area on rear deck (best in the afternoon)br- Generous dining table for large gatheringsbr- Comfy leather couches in lounge room br- Smart TVs upstairs and downstairs br- Sony PlayStation 4 br- DVD players plus DVD collection for all ages and tastesbr- Stereo via bluetooth connectionbr- Gas BBQbr- Weber charcoal kettle BBQ (byo charcoal)br- Washing machinebr- Roomy and safe backyard - safe for dogs and kids - with plenty of native flora and a little veggie and herb patchbr brGetting to the BeachbrThe closest beach is Currarong Beach, which is a short walk across the road, you are in the water in less than a minute.

The village is a haven for holidaymakers keen on relaxing, swimming, fishing and walking. brbrCurrarong is one of the few places in NSW where you can sit on a North West facing beach looking at mountains across the water, and watch the sun set over the ocean. brbrRock shelves, caves, and middens tell us that the Beecroft Peninsula and Currarong have been inhabited by First Nations communities from 4000 (and perhaps up to 7000) years ago. The area is very important to the Jerrinja and Wreck Bay communities and is set on traditional Yuin country. brbrBeachesbrCurrarong is surrounded by 14 beautiful beaches, most notably Warrain Beach and the sheltered Abrahams Bosom beach. Currarong is also famous for its rock pool, and for the many protected beaches a few minutes’ drive away on the other side of the headland in Jervis Bay, including Long Beach, Cabbage Tree Beach and the horse-shoe shaped Honeymoon Bay. brbrBush WalkingbrCurrarong is famous for its bushwalks and there are great walks accessible on the Beecroft Headland (accessible via the little wooden bridge near Abrahams Bosom beach) and in the Jervis Bay National Park about 3 kms from the house (entry via the road into Currarong). brbrFishing and divingbrCurrarong has world class fishing - rock, beach and ocean. In 2011 a new boat ramp was completed that allows for launching two boats at a time. The area is also renowned for its scuba diving and snorkelling. brbrCurrarong is also close to the Beecroft Weapons Range. The range provides access to some spectacular sights, including Honeymoon Bay and the Point Perpendicular Lighthouse, among other sites.
