Arriving from the States, this lovely couple's brief, when they bought this beautiful home was very simple, it must have a North Easterly aspect, with the potential for both great privacy and an outlook to a vision of green and blue, they found it here, where winter sun streams into all of the open living areas inside and all the outdoor living too, the covered wrap around return verandahs up and down, the big open lower entertainment deck and the huge master suite or parent's retreat up top are all sun kissed in winter the whole day long, while refreshed by cool ocean sea breezes throughout the summer. The magnificent bonus being to die for views from upstairs out to the Northern end of Caves Beach with sand, breaking waves and Moon Island all basking in their glory, the views stretching to Port Stephens Headland in the distance on a clear day, what a view to wake up to! BUT this lush landscaped, perfectly presented and meticulously maintained, really remarkable residence looked nothing like it does now. A barren exposed outcrop of just house confronted you, it would take a ton of imagination, time, blood, sweat, tears, planning, persistence, professionals and mountains of money to turn this little unfeathered duckling into the soaring swan she proudly is today, the grounds grew into a hidden haven of mystery and delight with gorgeous native birds and secret pathways, the interior and exterior were transformed with much more than just paint, this was no cheap and nasty renovation or exercise in being pretentious or showy, this was all about creating a sanctuary to live in and enjoy, every day from dawn until nightfall, on their own or shared with visitors ....

- An escape from tight city apartment living or the confines of suburban Colorbond fences
- A peaceful, private, pretty property, set at the end of a very quiet cul-de-sac
- Mature exotic Australian natives sourced from far North Queensland & South Australia
