This exceptional coastal holiday property is located at Lucky Bay, south of Kalbarri, offering a rare opportunity to acquire one of the area's most well-equipped camps for the first time. Known locally as the former Caretakers Cottage at Lucky Bay (also referred to as Halfway Bay), this unique property is part of a small group of camps and cottages in a highly sought-after location. It combines the relaxed charm of the iconic Lucky Bay shacks with the comfort and practicality of a thoughtfully designed, modern off-grid coastal retreat.

A large Colorbond shed approximately 6 meters by 6 meters with roller doors is included. The property benefits from a solar power system with battery backup and a generator housed in a separate shed.
