Absolute water front with private jetty!! Sunshine Cottage on Lake Macquarie

**Please be sure to read the Important Information below this description**

Imagine having your own beautiful weekender, just 90 minutes from Sydney, with absolute water frontage, and a private jetty! Sunshine Cottage offers spectacular 180 degree lake views, a fully equiped kitchen and bathroom, 3 comfortable bedrooms, laundry and a large veranda on which to relax and enjoy alfresco dining or an afternoon nap.

Sunshine at Lake Macquarie will give you the weekender life style you've been looking for. With Australia's largest coastal saltwater lake as your backyard, you will have ample opportunity to enjoy boating, fishing, swimming, sail boarding, and water-skiing.
There is an excellent boat ramp just 300m down the end of the street. Most guests then keep their boat tied up off the jetty for the duration of their stay. There is a huge front yard with plenty of space to keep the trailer.

Wake to the sound of lapping water, spectacular sunrises and superb views of Pulbah Island, and Pt. Wolstonecraft. Whether you enjoy boating, painting or photography, the gentle ambience of Sunshine at Lake Macquarie will let you enjoy a pleasant sea change.
