State Heritage Place No 26195.

The Dickson Beach House is a residential shack designed and built in the 1950s and renovated in 2012. It is situated at a picturesque spot at the edge of the rocky beach near Little Gorge and just below the HMAS Hobart Lookout.

It is described in the SA Heritage Places database as 'a significant surviving representative of the work of notable South Australian architect Robert Dickson. Alongside his own house at Rostrevor, the building's relatively unaltered state provides special insights into the life and design philosophy of Dickson. It is also a notable early example of a perma-pine pole-framed beach hut and demonstrates significant modern design characteristics with its functional minimalist plan, innovative use of multi-function shutters, and the way in which the windows and internal design create a specific relationship with external views'.

The Beach House was confirmed as a State Heritage Place on 15 June 2012.
