Feel a world away in this tranquil bush paradise. Every day in your own nature retreat surrounded by lush greenery and the peaceful trickle of a running creek. Privately set on just over one hectare, this split-level home has a beautiful sense of light and a fabulous floorplan for a growing family with three separate living areas, and perfectly zoned four-bedroom, four-bathroom accommodation. Hidden from the road behind a circular driveway, a natural backdrop of towering Eucalypt canopies and lush ferns welcomes you on arrival, instantly melting away the stresses of the day. Abundant floor to ceiling glass windows and doors create a sense of cohesiveness with the stunning scenery, most notably in the cathedral ceilinged dining area. Experience the serene gardens outside while entertaining on the alfresco. Gather around the fire on a cool evening with a warming glass of red, and enjoy the resident native birds of king parrots, kookaburras and rosellas, absolute bliss. Although completely private in a blue-ribbon Belmont North enclave, the alluring aspect of this location is its centrality to both Lake Macquarie and Nine Mile Beach. The city bypass is just a few minutes away making the commute to John Hunter Hospital and University of Newcastle a breeze. And for shopping, Lake Macquarie Square and Bennetts Green retail park can both be reached in just five minutes. Lovingly crafted in 1988 and recently architecturally renovated, this sublime retreat has been owned by only one family.
