Last Listing description (September 2025)

Architect-designed by renowned Kevin Snell to make the most of cooling coastal breezes, abundant natural light and of course, those spectacular sea views, this immaculate home creates an expansive retreat where privacy, connection, versatility and convenience are all effortlessly attended to. Revealing premium finishes throughout a thoughtful, spacious layout, the home is one entertainers will adore. Its versatile indoor-outdoor spaces are as perfect for relaxation and quiet connection, as they are for everyday entertaining and elaborate events. With every polished finish and within each inviting space, you find something more to love. If you're not cooking up a storm in the designer kitchen, perhaps you'll be relaxing poolside and taking in those views. As a much-loved home, it is a dream for the modern family, providing plenty of opportunity for everyone to find their space and come together.

Given the impressive size of the block, you will surely not be disappointed by the low maintenance bush garden out the back, where due to its position close to Glenrock Reserve, provides the ideal spot to look out for birdlife, bluetongue lizards and the occasional echidna. But while you may enjoy being framed by these peaceful surrounds and the sweet sound of birdsong, you are still convenient to every essential. The perfect family home facing Gibbs Brothers Park, be able to enjoy local rugby games, or watch your children play from the comfort of your home. By car, you're moments to Newcastle CBD and Westfield Kotara, while on foot, it's an easy stroll down to the ocean baths and beach. If you prefer bikes, Glenrock Mountain Bike Trails or Fernleigh Track provide endless opportunities for weekend adventures.
