The Snapshot
Perched high above Raymond Terrace with a panoramic outlook stretching across the Williams River and surrounding farmland, this home is anchored by one unforgettable feature: its spectacular rear entertaining deck. Crafted with century-old tallowwood beams and designed to draw you outdoors from morning to dusk, this elevated space transforms the simple act of gathering into something special. Whether it's long lunches, sunset wind-downs, or a quiet coffee as the valley wakes, the deck frames every day with beauty.
The Home
From the moment you arrive, the home's elevated presence, generous proportions, and thoughtful tri-level layout set the tone for a place where everyday life flows with ease and entertaining becomes second nature.
Stepping inside, the middle entry level welcomes you with higher ceilings, soft natural light and a peaceful sitting area. This level also connects directly to the triple garage, with remote doors, epoxy flooring, and an additional roller door to the rear.
Upstairs is where the heartbeat of the home lives: a sweeping open-plan kitchen, living and dining zone framed by timber flooring, designer pendants and a crisp, modern palette. The kitchen feels beautifully considered, with stone benchtops, a waterfall island, and soft-closing cabinetry.
Two sets of glass sliders invite the outdoors in, pulling your gaze toward the impressive entertaining deck - an expansive, elevated space crafted with century-old tallowwood beams and uninterrupted views that stretch across the treetops to the mountains beyond. The master suite also sits on this level, offering a tranquil retreat with views, a walk-in wardrobe, and a hotel-style ensuite featuring dual shower heads and floor-to-ceiling tiles.
Downstairs, families will appreciate the ease and separation this level provides, with three generous bedrooms (all with built-ins), a stylish main bathroom with a freestanding tub, a second living area, and direct access to yet another covered outdoor space overlooking the fully fenced, levelled backyard. It's the perfect zone for kids, guests, or multigenerational living - quiet, practical and beautifully connected to the outdoors.
A 6kW solar system, zoned ducted air, a 5000L water tank, and established native landscaping add everyday efficiency and appeal, while the location shines just as brightly. From here, you're moments from the newly renovated
Raymond Terrace Tavern, local cafés and shops, the riverside boat ramp (a favourite of the current owners), and an easy drive to Newcastle, Port Stephens, East Maitland and the airport. All the convenience, none of the rush.
This is hillside living with heart, views, and an effortless family rhythm. A home that welcomes you in and makes it very hard to leave.
