Tucked away in the peaceful surrounds of West End/leeka, and set across 1.79 hectares, Black Shack offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty and a genuine connection to its surroundings. The home has been thoughtfully designed to make the most of its secluded setting, with the landscape visible from almost every angle.
Originally an owner-builder residence, the home has retained its character through a considered renovation, with beautiful timber elements and salvaged materials contributing to its warmth and individuality.
Inside, hardwood timber flooring runs throughout, complemented by a tiled bathroom and Nectre N15 freestanding fireplace. Expansive windows bring the surrounding landscape inside, framing the trees, gully and glimpses towards the ocean. Several of the larger windows are double glazed, with a combination of single and double glazing throughout.
The connection to the natural environment is one of Black Shack's defining features. Birdlife, wildlife and the surrounding landscape create a peaceful backdrop to everyday life, while the outdoor entertaining areas provide a natural extension of the home.
A Proven Short-Stay Opportunity
Black Shack has been successfully operated as Airbnb accommodation for many years, welcoming guests for family holidays, birthdays, honeymoons, elopements and special celebrations. The deck has even been the setting for two marriage proposals.
What began as a first home has evolved into a destination enjoyed by many others, with guests returning to experience the property's unique setting and relaxed coastal lifestyle.
For the next owner, there is scope to continue the established short-stay model, use Black Shack as a private coastal retreat, or combine the two.
The West End Setting
West End/leeka remains one of the island's quieter and more naturally secluded coastal locations. Known for its coastline, open space and strong connection to the surrounding environment, it offers a slower pace and a genuine sense of escape, while still being part of a welcoming local community.
1.79 hectares, a distinctive character home and a proven short-stay history - Black Shack offers a rare combination of lifestyle and opportunity in West End/leeka.
