Highland on the Lake An Idyllic Poolside Oasis

Experience tranquil, waterfront living on the banks of Lake Macquarie. Set across two levels with four bathrooms, this luxury, Hampton's style home offers light-filled open living flowing out to two oversized decks where you can soak up stunning sunsets across the lake while dining alfresco. Spend your days lazing by the private pool in between games of ping pong and cosy up with a movie in the home theatre come evening. Cams Wharf's waterfront eateries are just a five-minute drive away.
Spacious, contemporary and newly renovated, you'll never want to leave this lakefront oasis that feels like a home-away-from-home. Enjoy the easygoing, coastal lifestyle, starting your morning with a leisurely 10-minute stroll for coffee at local favourite, Nords Trading Post, before returning home to soak up the sunshine poolside, complete with sun loungers and an umbrella for shade.

Come together upstairs in light-filled open plan living which flows through to the front deck, comfortably furnished to enjoy an evening drink while overlooking Lake Macquarie. The gourmet kitchen and chic dining area have everything needed to cook and savour meals at home, including a 10-seater table, additional rattan stools at the breakfast bar and a servery through to a second deck, where you'll find another 10-person table that allows for seamless indoor-outdoor dining. From here you can access the grassy backyard and sparkling private pool. Dual living areas provide ample space to unwind. Settle in for casual conversation while enjoying uninterrupted views in the stylish seating area off the kitchen or kick back in the upstairs TV room, equipped with Netflix, pay TV and a gaming console. Central heating and cooling, plus ceiling fans throughout keep temperatures comfortable year-round.
