Iconic Retro Mermaid Beach House

Channeling the nostalgia of sun-soaked beach days, with sundowners on the porch and surfboards, towels, and swimsuits at the ready, this iconic mid-century beach home at 26 Seashell Avenue is a rare gem. This home has not been offered to the market for over a decade.
Architecturally designed and constructed in the 1960s, this original 'Beachcomber' style home offers an eclectic blend of timeless charm, vibrant interiors, and inviting outdoor spaces, making it an unmissable and versatile opportunity for beach lovers.
Offering a sprawling almost 16 m frontage and one of the largest street setbacks from kerb to boundary in the neighbourhood, this vintage Mermaid Beach treasure masterfully combines authentic design elements of modern mid-century with Palm Springs influences. With rich timber tones, extensive terrazzo tiling, wrought iron details, tumbled feature bricks, and breeze-blocks, this retro gem is inimitable in every sense.
A broad north-facing deck sits atop a pair of external curved staircases and wraps around the first floor, overlooking a tree-lined front yard where towering, established Moreton Bay Black Beans, banana palms, and flowering jasmine serve as a testament to the property's colourful heritage.
Inside, a light-filled atrium, with soaring raked ceilings and VJ lined walls connects with three bedrooms, a galley-style kitchen, lounge room, dining area, and rear alfresco deck, creating a central breezeway that invites refreshing ocean breezes throughout the home.
A tiled, gated swimming pool, visible from the rear leisure deck, enhances the retro Slim Aarons vibes and basks in abundant sunshine. A separate studio-style space with a private bathroom sits below the main house on ground level, making it ideal as a kids' or teen retreat, guest suite, or spacious work-from-home office den.
The site also offers immense development potential, with DA opportunities ready to be explored and executed in one of the most sought-after seaside streets on the Gold Coast.*
KEY FEATURES:
• Iconic Mermaid Beach home in a prime beachside location, hitting the market for the first time in almost a decade.
• Cherished for over its remarkable 60+ year history, this beach house has retained many of the original architectural details and finishes, retaining its mid-century essence. Ensuring it's originality, with the soul of the home thoughtfully preserved.
