Description
Spectacular panoramic water views, 2 large decks, 16 m wide glass wall, log fire
Blue Salt Gerroa is a luxurious hillside beach house with spectacular, uninterrupted views of the ocean, beach and river. The house is very elevated and the views can be seen for miles from two large decks and internally through 16 metres of glass panels and doors. All living areas enjoy postcard views through these floor to ceiling glass doors, which open to the decks. The view of ocean, beach and river commands your attention and takes your breath away. Blue Salt is located within short walking distance of and overlooking the famous 12.5 km Seven Mile Beach. Nothing is so relaxing as watching and listening to the waves rolling in and observing the ebb and flow of the tides. The house is free standing and set back on the block so that sweeping views are maximised. As a result of being well set back from the road you do not look directly into neighbours homes and privacy from the street is maintained. This house due to it's view and elevation has been referred to as the jewel in Gerroa's crown.
Blue Salt has spectacular panoramic views specifically of the Pacific Ocean, the Seven Mile Beach and the Crooked River. Adjacent to the house is the view over the Seven Mile Beach National Park, the mountains, escarpments and green rolling hills which stretch out to two magnificent headlands, Beecroft Peninsula and Black Head. Beecroft Peninsula cliffs can be seen clearly from the house and the iconic Mount Coolangatta forms a significant part of the view. At night Point Perpendicular Lighthouse can be seen flashing it's light on the horizon The house is located very near to the Seven Mile Beach and it is only a short walk to the beach.
A very special review written originally in French:
"Spectacular view of the beach and the ocean but also the river and beautiful vegetation, incredibly beautiful rooms, 2 huge balconies, 2 living rooms, 4 double (bed) rooms, really exceptional villa. The kind of dream house. Probably the most beautiful house in the area. Breathtaking view. "

Le genre de maison de rêve. Probablement la plus belle maison de alentours. Vue a couper le souffle. Jenn March 2019”
Blue Salt is a private, spacious and luxurious home. It is contemporary and elegant in style, having versatile, multi-level living areas. Most rooms enjoy postcard views through an extensive glass frontage from all floors, with sliding doors opening onto two large entertaining decks. A major feature of the house is the massive upstairs open plan living area and deck directly overlooking the Seven Mile Beach and large separate living/lounge room with garden views and a double sofa bed expanding the number of people that can stay at the property to 10. There are four bedrooms two of which are master bedrooms with queen sized beds, ensuite, built - in wardrobes, heaters, fans, balconies and water views. The third bedroom is next door to the second living room and bathroom, has a queen sized bed, a fan, a heater and a bush setting and the fourth bedroom has two single beds, a fan and water views. Greenery surrounds the house.
The house has a north-south aspect with the major living area and three bedrooms with the water views facing south. This aspect and ocean breezes make the house cool in summer. The wood burner creates warmth and atmosphere in winter. The house is equipped for all seasons.
The house is set amongst trees and greenery. Rainforest Hill, a natural sub- tropical rainforest, can been seen directly through the kitchen window. Sub-tropical vegetation appears near the house attracting a varied and colourful bird life.
From the upper deck colourful sunsets can be seen to the west behind Mount Coolangatta. You can also watch an electric storm that hits the coast with all it's drama, sight migrating whales and dolphins or observe a lone surfer tackling the waves or a fisherman throwing a net from his boat in the early morning. Or you can simply watch the ocean and enjoy the sight and sound of the waves thrashing against the beach.
Blue Salt, only 90 minutes from Sydney, enables you to experience all that this quaint village of Gerroa and it's surrounds has to offer. Just a short distance further from Canberra.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at Blue Salt and will definitely be back to stay again. The views from almost every room are spectacular with sweeping views of Seven Mile Beach. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony to enjoy a leisurely breakfast and take in the views. Deborah, was very helpful with any questions I had and quick to respond to my emails.

"Magnificent views and a calming tranquility" Stayed for weekend with group of friends. Well appointed home which is nicely fitted out. Amazing views (just like the picture) of the whole beach, which has a lovely tranquility. And those sunsets, just beautiful. Walking distance to Fisherman's club, and just a short drive if you want to explore nearby towns of Gerringong and Berry. Great communication with owner. Highly recommended.
