While it might not be the highest price paid for a Currarong property, $3.5m, which was recorded for a home in Walton Way recently, it is the highest price paid for a beachfront home.
Craig Hadfield, of Ray White South Coast, said the home at 41 Beecroft Parade, sold prior to auction.
“It is a beautiful home,” he said “it is only eight-years-old. A family from Sydney have used it as their holiday home.
“It is literary 20 metres from the ocean. It is a serious waterfront property.”
He said the former owners sold the property to do other things.
The two-storey, modern, four bedroom home with a double garage also has a detached self contained studio.
The home was purchased by another Sydney buyer and would also be used as a holiday home.
“Sure it’s not the highest price paid for Currarong but it is the highest beachside property price,” Mr Hadfield said.

Ray White South Coast has had a successful time of late, setting record prices for waterfront properties at Callala Beach and Culburra Beach.
Mr Hadfield said improved travel times to the Shoalhaven and affordable property prices were making the area attractive.
“The area is still affordable,” he said “especially in comparison to properties in the northern market like Gerringong, Kiama and Austinmer.
“This latest buyer has been looking for a property from Kiama down and hadn’t be able to find what they were after until now.
“People are less suburban centric now. They are more conscious about buying a property they love which is within the budget they have.
“People are no longer set on a particular suburb and that’s great for the South Coast.
“The trip down is definitely a lot easier and that is opening this area up more.”
Ray White South Coast recently sold a property at Callala Beach for $2.1m and one at Culburra Beach for $2.5m. While First National sold another home at Callala Bay for $2.3m.
