1770 beach shacks listed

The boutique 1770 Beach Shacks in the Queensland town 1770, south of Bundaberg, has been listed for sale for the first time in 17 years.

The town of 1770 is about 130 kilometres from Bundaberg in the north and Gladstone in the south and 494 kilometres from Brisbane.

Located on Captain Cook Drive, the 1770 Beach Shack has four Balinese-inspired pole houses with private decks, overlooking the 1770 swimming beach. 

The ‘Stone Cottage’ is an adjoining bungalow on 809 square metres of land that holds a separate title and is on Elliot Street. It is currently used as a manager’s residence. The combined land area is about 1,585 square metres.

1770 is named for Captain Cook's second land fall.

Agent Leon Alaban of Ray White is seeking expressions of interest, closing on November 19, in the property as a freehold with a business.

According to RP Data, a house on 610 square metres of land at 632 Captain Cook Drive has been for sale for several years with a price tag of $1.2 million.
