Octavius Oceanfront Sanctuary
Positioned on a quiet cul-de-sac of only a few homes, 42 Octavius Place is a rare elevated waterfront sanctuary. Being right by the ocean feels like a breath of fresh air—a relaxing, sheltered coastal haven balancing pure serenity with a central location. The property is fully fenced for complete peace of mind.
Inside, the tidy 1930s Californian Bungalow features ornate plaster ceilings, timber accents, built-in shelving, and stained-glass windows. The kitchen offers ample storage, a central island, and a side bay window.
The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area connects to a second lounge, covered porch, and deck. All living spaces and outdoor decks look directly over the surf break at Boulters Bay right out front. Below, a double garage lets you park up even closer to the sea—currently set up as an awesome space with a spectacular coastal outlook, plus off-street parking for two additional cars.
The home offers three bedrooms with wardrobes. The master suite includes a tiled ensuite and deck access, while the main bathroom features a corner spa bath, tiled finish, and skylight. Lush sub-tropical plantings frame the home alongside a small lawn, wrap-around decking, and planter beds.
Set directly on the Coastal Walkway, you are a short walk to the CBD, Wind Wand, coffee stops, Aquatic Centre, Te Henui Walkway, and Eastend and Fitzroy surf beaches.
