Space

This property is a breath of fresh air. Only minutes away from the largest saltwater lake in Australia, Lake Macquarie, this is the ultimate location to get in touch with nature.

The light and airy living room offers the perfect spot to kick back and relax, and open-plan living makes the house flow seamlessly from one room to another, awakening your creative spirit with the intimate yet spacious feel. Recently renovated, you'll find touches of refinement in every room.

In the spacious, grassy backyard, guests can enjoy access to a large barbecue and undercover alfresco dining area. The oversized garage is stocked with bicycles of various sizes, perfect for the whole family to explore the nearby lakeside bike path. Additionally, there are golf clubs available for a round at the nearby 18-hole Toronto Golf Club & Driving Range, just a 5-minute drive away. For those interested in disc golf, a set of frisbees is provided for use at the 10-hole lakeside disc golf course just a few minutes walk away.

Enjoy a wine tour (or four) in the heart of the best wine region in Australia and appease your inner art lover at the Lovis Arts Gallery. Board the M.V. Lady Mac and cruise the largest coastal saltwater lake in the southern hemisphere, Lake Macquarie. Looking to get your feet off the floor? Enjoy the scenic views from above in a hot air balloon. This peaceful stay will surely satiate you with decadent views and indulgent wine and food.
