Shelly Beach Golf Club will be given a facelift
The aging clubhouse at Shelly Beach Golf Club will be given a facelift, using neutral tones, weathered timber, natural stone, and native vegetation to complement the location’s coastal character.
Alterations and additions at the club are being planned over four stages to update the building with a high-quality contemporary design and large glazed windows for views of the surrounding golf course and beachfront.
Shelly Beach Golf Club at 86 Bonnieview St includes a clubhouse, pro shop, greenkeeper’s shed, and carpark, which the club owns. The surrounding lands, including the golf course, are on Crown land subject to a Crown lease.
A development proposal being considered by Central Coast Council is in four stages.
Stage one will include main ground floor works such as demolition, alterations and additions to provide amenities, sports bar, active sports facilities, gaming lounge, outdoor gaming room and outdoor terraces.
There will be a new entry to the club and the southern portion of the carpark will be extended and resurfaced along with an upgraded vehicular access from Shelly Beach Rd.
The second stage will see alterations on level one including a kitchen remodel, revised internal layout for the bistro, restaurant, café and lounge along with an outdoor terrace.
Attention will turn to the function rooms in stage three.
Stage four will see demolition of the pro shop and construction of a new shop, extension of driveway circulation areas and a new ramp, stairway and roofed entry to the club.
Major carpark improvements and redesign will start in stage three and continue through stage four with an increase of 54 spaces taking the total to 221 including eight accessible spots.
Entry/exit points in Bonnieview St and Shelly Beach Rd will remain unchanged but a boom gate entry is proposed for better security and all vehicles entering the site will require ticket entry.
More details are available in the development application 1534/2024 on Central Coast Council’s website.
