This home provides a spacious, light and airy environment and layout that will delight today's busy families who are keen to relax and play in this premium location. A tranquil sanctuary or fun filled home with self contained unit for the extended family. Perfect home office location. This versatile residence in a prime beach front location will allow you to forget the worries and stresses of modern living. The design brief to the award winning Seaside Homes was to capture the wonderful location, the ocean views and sea breeze, plan for a multi-generational family with a self contained one bedroom granny flat and lift to all levels as well as incorporating sustainability and low maintenance. Completed in 2015, a walk through this home is testament to the skills of the designer and vision of the owners. Enter the front door to a wide tiled hall that leads to the stairs and lift. The one bedroom granny flat, with a full size kitchen, was designed east/west to catch the sea breeze and light with glass sliding doors to the front and rear verandahs and gardens. The bedroom has a large wardrobe and the bathroom is styled with marble tiles and large shower area. To the rear of the property is a multifunctional room currently used as a studio apartment for visiting friends and family with kitchenette and bathroom, but would be an amazing, large home office with direct client access from the front door or this area could be used as a family rumpus room for the kids/teenagers to have their own space away from the adults, with access to the low maintenance fully enclosed backyard. The laundry is well designed with plenty of storage and exterior access. The large double garage has a storage area and auto doors. Climb the stairs or use the lift to the first floor where the open plan living, dining and entertaining area spreads over the full width of the home and flows to the expansive east facing terrace. The designer kitchen, with walk in pantry, stone waterfall island bench and Belling induction stove with double oven is the hub of the home. On this level is the master bedroom with ensuite and walk in robe, two large bedrooms with built in robes, large family bathroom with seperate toilet, as well as the fourth bedroom which is currently used as a study. Move to the top floor to be delighted by the stunning views over the reserve to the ocean. This floor is currently used as a large, light and breezy entertaining area with BBQ and hot tub on the terrace. Using the attention to design detail incorporated in this home, this floor has been designed so that it could just as easily be used as an amazing parent's retreat with walk in robe and ensuite. The property has all the needs for modern sustainability with solar panels, solar hot water systems, LED lighting, 7000 litre rain water tank (plumbed to laundry and toilets) as well as bore water for the garden. Just 30 minutes drive to Newcastle CBD, John Hunter Hospital and University of Newcastle. One and half hours easy drive to Sydney on M1 freeway. Close to walking and bike tracks, metres to Surf Life Saving Club patrolled beach area, Swansea Channel, Blacksmiths Boat Ramp, Grannys Pool, 4WD access to Nine Mile Beach, the blue waters of Lake Macquarie and just minutes drive to a number of shopping centres or a comfortable stroll to Swansea.
