Sanctuary by the sea, a tranquil retreat amidst nature

Tucked away from the street against the lush, verdant backdrop of Charlotte Street Reserve, this remarkable residence has been meticulously renovated and recreated to merge contemporary design with a tranquil retreat-like atmosphere, complemented by the soothing sounds of birdsong. Beyond the sophisticated interiors, the enchanting gardens with treehouse unfold as a magical playground where children can explore and invent their own adventures, while a cosy firepit area provides the perfect setting for family evenings under the stars,

Floor-to-ceiling glass windows bridge the indoors with the lush outdoors, offering stunning coastal views from Stockton and Bar Beach to Port Stephens, while adjustable louvre windows foster beautiful cross-ventilation that enhances the home's peaceful ambiance. The residence celebrates natural materials with finesse-Stringybark floors and a rugged sandstone fireplace invite touch, while bespoke timber vanities and custom joinery echo the textures of the bush outside.

Spread across three thoughtfully designed levels, this sanctuary features two separate living areas and five bedrooms. The family living area, and bespoke kitchen, complete with a built-in daybed and Siemens appliances, serves as the heart of the home. The lower level lounge is where the family can gather by the fire during chilly evenings or open up to the expansive deck to enjoy the outdoor beauty and entertain family and friends in warmer months. The three bathrooms feature underfloor heating, with the main bathroom presenting a luxurious oval bath. Here, you can unwind and open the louvres to listen to the gentle patter of raindrops on the surrounding greenery, creating a truly tranquil spa-like experience.
