Moonah Ocean House at Rye

New Listing November 2025

Step into Moonah Ocean, your private moonah-tree sanctuary, just a short walk from the dramatic Number 16 coastline with its cliffs, rock platforms, blowholes, and the striking sandstone formation known as Lizard Head.

Tucked within native coastal woodland, this spacious 3-bed, 2-bath home feels relaxed and private. Mature moonah trees surround the property, and at night the soft lighting highlights their sculptural shapes, creating an inviting and atmospheric garden outlook. It’s an easy base for beach days, coastal walks, golf, and visits to the Peninsula’s hot springs, with the calm bay beaches only a short drive away.

Inside, the house is light-filled with plenty of space for families and small groups.

 – Bedroom 1: Queen bed with native garden outlook
 – Bedroom 2: Queen bed with moonah tree views
 – Bedroom 3: Bunk room with 4 bunk beds, great for kids, teens or larger groups

The property is wrapped in mature moonah trees, a sculptural native woodland that not only creates a natural buffer from the outside world but also gives the home a natural coastal feel while keeping you close to everything the Peninsula offers.
