A 1970s Surf Shack Perched Above the Sea

A three-bedroom 1970s surf shack perched above the water with uninterrupted ocean views across Dodges Ferry. Sleeping six, Cliff Top on Park is layered with found objects, handmade furniture and personal history, making it honest, character-filled and deeply tied to its coastal setting.

The shack is made for unhurried stays, where the view takes centre stage and comfort comes with the ease of somewhere well loved. Days follow the rhythm of the sea, from morning light over the water to salty walks, long lunches and slow evenings indoors. Front-row seats to the ocean, salt air and a slower rhythm of shack life.
