The Snapshot
Absolute waterfront living is the hero at 160 Cove Boulevard, and rightly so. With panoramic Port Stephens views, a private jetty suited to large vessels, and deep-water frontage that removes the usual tidal restrictions, this property is built around a direct connection to the water. From the layered entertaining decks to the wide, uninterrupted outlook, every element of this home has been positioned to make the setting feel immersive, effortless and unforgettable, with a sense of calm and freedom hard to replicate.
The Home
A property like this changes the pace of everything. Mornings begin with still water and filtered light, afternoons stretch easily across the deck, and the view becomes part of daily life in a way that never loses its pull.
Positioned on a generous 1,631sqm parcel with absolute deep waterfront access, this beautifully renovated tri-level residence pairs a relaxed coastal mood with the kind of boating and entertaining credentials that are hard to overstate.
From the street, the arrival feels private and considered. Beyond, the home opens to sweeping Port Stephens water views, a private jetty, and deep-water frontage. For those who like their lifestyle with room to move, there is also substantial parking for guests, a boat, caravan, trailer or jet ski, along with a separate double garage and an additional storage shed.
The home itself has been thoughtfully updated throughout, with a fresh, modern finish that lets the outlook do plenty of the talking while still delivering warmth, comfort and functionality. Large glass windows and sliding doors draw the water inward at every opportunity, while engineered timber laminate flooring, sheer full-length curtains, stone benchtops and soft-close cabinetry give the interiors a polished, easy-living feel.
On the first level, the kitchen, dining and living zone connect beautifully with the outdoors, flowing straight onto a covered timber entertaining deck finished with driftwood-style feature ceilings and frameless glass detailing. Two bedrooms on this level each open to the deck, while the bathroom and laundry have been finished with the same contemporary approach seen throughout.
Above, a second living area, a kitchenette, two more bedrooms, and another bathroom provide valuable flexibility. The upper living space opens onto its own deck, offering an elevated vantage point over the bay. Outside, landscaped gardens, rock-retained walls, level lawn areas, under-home storage, feature lighting and rainwater storage complete a property that feels beautifully resolved and deeply connected to its setting.
160 Cove Boulevard delivers the full picture: privacy, presence, flexibility and front-row access to one of Port Stephens' most captivating natural backdrops.
