About this house rental

The Archer House, described as one of Australia's quintessential beachfront homes, is spectacularly set on Sydney's iconic Whale Beach. Built into the contours of the hill with the beach at your doorstep, the minimalist steel, glass and concrete pavilion offers a spacious open living design and panoramic views over the South Pacific Ocean. The Archer House graciously flows over two levels, with living dining and kitchen on the top level and bedrooms located on the second level. The 4 generous bedrooms can be found on the below level all with bathrooms, including a family/bunk room. The house can comfortably accommodate 12 guests.

What the Owner Loves
The top floor of the pavilion can open on both sides with glass walls that slide away to form a continuous platform from the terrace in front to the courtyard at the back. It has a fully equipped kitchen, dining and living room. With waxed concrete floors and floor to ceiling louvres capture the ocean cross breeze to keep you cool in the height of summer.

Superb architecture. Stunning in every way. Even from street level, you knew you were in for a treat. Perfect for our extended family to celebrate a significant birthday. Sons-in-law and daughters were our chefs and reported enjoying the kitchen facilities. Beautifully appointed rooms especially that main bedroom with its bath. Tony was absolutely wonderful to liaise with - nothing was too much trouble. Very accommodating and easy going. Damian also a joy to deal with. THANK YOU.
