1/38 Coolamon Close, Ocean Grove, is selling with a $150,000 tiny home.
Almost 8000sq m of untouched bushland has hit the market in Ocean Grove, providing a rare acreage opportunity just 800m from a major supermarket.
The secluded block near Kingston Park is currently home to a tiny home that rakes in about $30,000 a year as a holiday rental.
The one-bedroom loft-style hideaway, the Treehab Mountain Ash, costs about $150,000 to buy new and forms part of the sale.

The 7927sq m property is within walking distance of schools, shops and sporting facilities.
Hayden, Ocean Grove agent Hugh McKewan said buyers had the option of keeping it onsite for an ongoing income or selling it.
Alternatively, they could opt to live in it while designing a bigger permanent home at the centrally-located bush block at 1/38 Coolamon Close, Ocean Grove.
“The tiny home is quite cool and it does really well – it’s booked out all the time,” he said.
The seclusion is a big part of the appeal for short-stay holiday-makers, who can immerse themselves in nature.
Tawny frogmouths and wallabies are among visitors to the bushland site, one of the last undeveloped blocks in the neighbourhood.
The Treehab Mountain Ash includes a loft bedroom and a bathroom with a full sized shower.
The tiny home has a galley kitchen with a bushland view.
Electricity, water, sewerage and NBN are connected to the property.
Mr McKewan said the property, listed for $1.45m to $1.57m, was already attracting strong interest given its unusual size and central position.
He said finding a lifestyle property with that much space was almost unheard of in Ocean Grove, with most buyers instead looking further afield to 2ha blocks in Wallington.
“It is just under two acres, a flat block of land and a real bush block – it’s that seclusion and location,” he said.
“You can walk to school at the end of the street, you can walk everywhere, but you wouldn’t know it because you’re in the bush.
“There is a building envelope on it, which is right at the back, and the services all run to there and the aspect from there is brilliant.”
