Escape to a haven of privacy and tranquillity, tucked away in an exclusive acreage enclave that blends the best of both worlds. It feels like you're living in the countryside, yet you're just 10 minutes from catching waves at Redhead Beach, 7 minutes from Eleebana's boat ramp for a day of sailing or fishing on Lake Macquarie, and only 20 minutes from the Newcastle CBD for a night on the town. This peaceful enclave property was carefully developed by Bryn Bell, a prominent builder in 1985, with the current owners raising their family here for 20 years. With unmatched privacy, a rare level allotment, this 3.8-acre parcel is nestled at the end of a tranquil cul-de-sac with north-east rear facing backyard and surrounded by tall timbers teeming with birdlife. This grand residence is accompanied by a two-bedroom villa, perfect for dual family living. Inside, the main house is bathed in natural light, thanks to a cleverly designed wide hallway with skylights that separate two distinct wings of the home. The layout is ideal, with bedrooms in one wing and two separate living areas, along with the kitchen, on the northern side. Soaring 15-foot ceilings enhance the spacious feel, while a wraparound verandah beckons for alfresco dining and entertaining. This property doesn't just impress with its size but also its thoughtful features. Enjoy the resort-style pool nestled in landscaped surrounds, fully irrigated gardens designed to capture winter sun and provide summer shade, a fruitful orchard, a triple garage, a 3-bay shed with separate access, and a charming gazebo where you can relax to the sound of birdsong. This is truly a remarkable property offering a lifestyle that is hard to find. - A rare approved dual occupancy lot in this private enclave - Formal lounge and dining, sunlit family room both open to north-facing verandah - Granite topped kitchen, Smeg gas cooktop & oven, Asko dishwasher - Ducted a/c and log fire, ducted vacuuming, sound system, back-to-base security system - Large 2-bedroom villa with updated bathroom and kitchen offers 120sqm of extra living space for extended family - Abundance of parking with freestanding triple garage and 3-bay shed - Bus stops nearby for direct access to Newcastle Grammar and Belmont Christian College, 6.4km/9mins – Belmont Hospital Disclaimer: We have obtained all information from reliable sources, however cannot guarantee its accuracy.
