Holiday haven

I don't know what it is about the houses on Sydney's Northern Beaches, but I can't get enough of their particular style of beach chic. It might be the combination of lashings of white, timber floorboards, sandstone....oh, and maybe a killer view or two. Absolute perfection. Take this little number for example - 'Norma House'. Could you think of a better place to spend the summer?<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUgYjyLB52YPrOgmvF0G1G8xHYjZge5sW63ZSzeq7l0MJx5L_iiJ5BeLrhkbz1U6q4-hNyAnNTCbuiHCqtAsyVYo1106QM3D_dtNB0SrPw_DyuStpZtgrVFgAHIZ74QTnUhZdidzLQkow/s1600/Untitled+picture12.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

'Barefoot Luxury' is yours to rent for a cool $14,000 p.w. for the perfect summer holiday.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWfgfr3oBQJXcDyROKnrQd_49K1kdcsvq-LAj-jv0rwSVc78E8zcoIiU8-Fij9gKuSINqd2HIYguXElhTZS33fBf2jaas-y7-kRk7susM0Dz1KRYd36f4TKhCy5QzYLtpYbRTgUBkNRSo/s1600-h/402918853ml1190612050.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;
