Hidden away at the end of a private road on almost two secluded acres (7,972sqm), this remarkable family estate delivers a level of privacy on a scale few properties can match. Elevated above a lush leafy backdrop with sweeping views, it feels wonderfully removed from the outside world, where birdsong is your daily soundtrack and everyday life slows to a gentler pace. Yet the lake foreshore is only 2km away and Newcastle's CBD is little more than 20 minutes from home.
Behind electric gates find a residence inspired by the warmth and timeless character of the Tuscan countryside. Terracotta tones, elegant columns, manicured gardens and a series of sun-drenched courtyards create an unforgettable first impression, while a spectacular resort-style pool and entertaining pavilion form the centrepiece of outdoor living. Oriented to the northeast, it's a space made for Christmas lunches, milestone celebrations, lazy afternoons by the pool and weekends spent with family and friends.
Designed as two interconnected pavilions, the home offers exceptional flexibility for large, blended or multi-generational families. A self-contained one-bedroom apartment with its own kitchenette and bathroom provides complete independence for elderly parents, adult children, guests or a home business. The main residence unfolds around grand formal living and dining spaces before opening to an expansive open plan family zone where everyone naturally comes together. Four bedrooms occupy their own private wing, including an oversized parents' retreat with sitting area, ensuite and balcony, while an additional upper-level living space with a fourth bathroom and lake views offers endless possibilities as a games room, home office, teenage retreat or guest accommodation.
Completing the picture are two separate garages accommodating seven vehicles, an enormous motor court and additional parking for boats, caravans, trailers and work vehicles. With boating, fishing, kayaking and paddleboarding on Lake Macquarie just three minutes away, this is a property where privacy, space and an exceptional family lifestyle come together in a way few homes can offer.
