If you know Murrays Beach, then you know a Lake Point Way address literally means you can almost go jump in the Lake from your back door and this is just 1 of the very many reasons the current owners Ben and Mandy chose to build their "dream home" here, beside the stunning waterfront foreshore of glistening Lake Macquarie, and it's no secret they are going to sorely miss watching the sun set over the Lake in spectacular fashion, as they catch up deck-side with friends and family on balmy summer evenings, or they nestle in for winter night's curled up by their natural gas feature fireplace, after cooking a meal in their stellar designer kitchen, with light up butler's pantry and imported free standing dual fuel cooker, that entertainer's and chef extraordinaire's will love, then there's waking up to views from their master suite, where they can sleep in and enjoy complete peace and quiet as long as they like, thanks to high end double glazed windows and over the top insulation, capping off their days, kicking back in style in their indulgent ensuite spa. Purpose designed to create effortless street level everyday living, indoors and out, Ben and Mandy capitalised on their elevated position, to not only exploit at every opportunity, their gorgeous outlooks to gum trees and The Lake, but to also add a very special extra dimension with an internally accessed, totally separate and sound proofed creative studio space below, where you can record and perform at any time of day or night without disturbing anyone upstairs or the neighbours, in the process also achieving immense, full height, easily accessed under house storage and workshop, their professionally landscaped grounds and gardens are not only a sensory delight, but they also afford the home immense privacy and create a sense of intrigue from the curb and last, but definitely not least, is the fact that they can leave their home and be poolside, on the Lake, in the Lake House Cafe or walking an untouched bush trail in literally 30 seconds ......

This creative studio space is on a whole other level, purpose designed for Ben by John L Sayers, so Ben could record and play without disturbing or being disturbed by anyone at home or in the neighbourhood, John L Sayers is one of Australia's finest audio engineers, music producers and recording studio designers, he has recorded and produced music for and with artists like John Farnham, Daddy Cool, Australian Crawl, just to name a few and he has designed recording studios across Australia for acts like Eskimo Joe and the Australian National University Canberra (ANU), as well as around the globe for BPro Production in Dubai and Rose Lane Studios in California USA, John's designs are world renowned and his 2 room studio design here features a soundproof control room and separate live room for musicians, instruments and amplifiers, both rooms having excellent acoustic performance, silenced air conditioning, cat 6 internet cabling and independent 15 amp and 10 amp independent from upstairs circuitry, so for those who know what all this means, you should be suitably impressed, but for the lay person like me, just think little Johnny can play his drum kit as badly as he likes or enjoy his purpose gaming room with mates, without you ever feeling any pain, or perhaps hubby can blast his cinema room experience without the entire neighbourhood feeling like there's been a sonic boom, with separate and internal access and a powder room as well, you could almost lock them in and just send food downstairs on the odd occasion, just saying ... Seriously though, there is genuinely something here for everyone in this delightful home, which promises architectural, engineering and building excellence, clean fresh lines and an as easy on the eyes as it is on the body, wonderful lake and bush lifestyle, within minutes of pristine beaches and the rich and diverse, ever growing and developing Swansea shopping and cafe strip, just 35 minutes from Newcastle and an hour and a half from Sydney in a bush and lake setting and community that is truly beyond compare, what's not to love?
