The dream property does exist ! This exceptional rural lifestyle residence delivers refinement, scale and position in a true dress-circle location. Privately set yet not isolated, a picturesque country road leads to this boutique acreage retreat, offering an enviable blend of prestige living and peaceful rural surrounds in one of the Forster/Tuncurry region’s most tightly held locations.
Set across approximately 1.7 hectares of cleared, fertile land and framed by stands of graceful pine trees, the property immediately impresses with its sense of space, privacy and timeless appeal. Meticulously designed and master-built over two levels, the home features striking sandstone brick construction on the ground floor, complemented by classic weatherboard cladding above. A wide, covered, full-length front verandah stretches across the facade, perfectly positioned to take in the serene rural outlook.
Inside, the home is drenched in natural light, enhanced by high ceilings and full-height, wall-length windows that draw the outdoors in. The free-flowing floorplan offers both formal and informal living zones, along with a spacious family dining area designed for relaxed everyday living and effortless entertaining. At the heart of the home, the kitchen is an entertainer’s dream, showcasing French Provincial, style handcrafted timber and glass-fronted cabinetry, sweeping marble benchtops, gas cooking, quality appliances, rangehood, dishwasher and a generous walk-in pantry.
The upper level accommodates four large bedrooms, each enjoying direct access to the panoramic verandah through beautiful stained timber French doors. The expansive master suite is a true retreat, complete with its own private sitting area and a stunning ensuite, creating a luxurious sanctuary for parents.
Downstairs offers remarkable versatility, comprising a large home office and two fully self-contained living quarters, each with its own kitchenette, bathroom and living area. The second, west-facing residence also includes two bedrooms, making the home ideal for extended family living, guest accommodation or income-producing opportunities. In total, the property provides seven bedrooms, four bathrooms and three kitchens, a true master-built residence of rare flexibility and quality.
Completing the lifestyle offering, the river’s edge is just metres away and is commonly used for wakeboarding, water skiing and fishing, with the waterway navigating directly through to Forster’s renowned Aqua Lakes. Adding further appeal, the property can be sold fully furnished, allowing the next owner to move straight in and immediately enjoy this remarkable rural and waterfront-adjacent lifestyle.
This is a standout residence where craftsmanship, scale and location combine to create something truly special.
