Currently owner occupied, this terrace has been much loved by its retiree owner, who has had so much of the property extensively renovated to a much higher standard than is usually the norm here.
Our owner loved living on the grounds of one of Lake Macquarie's most sought after waterfront resorts, and her kids and grandkids loved the holiday atmosphere, so different to the much more expensive, concrete jungle retirement village options available elsewhere,
Not only cheaper than retirement village accommodation, the ongoing costs here were about the same, but with no exit fees, and with whatever captital gain you make, being all your's to keep, retiring here at magnificent Rafferty's Resort was a no brainer for our owner and her family.
Making life long friends with other retiree neighbours was an unexpected bonus!
Idyllically located on 13 hectares of gorgeous, landscaped park like grounds with a huge water frontage to stunning Lake Macquarie, only an hour from Sydney's North Connex with unspoilt beaches like Catherine Hill Bay and Caves Beach virtually on your doorstep.
Waterfront resort features include a sandy foreshore swimming beach, jetty and boat ramp with dry dock boat and jet-ski storage, making it the cheapest waterfront access property you will ever own!
In true resort style, there's no shortage of lifestyle options with your choice of 4 swimming pools, 4 tennis courts, volley ball courts, with bar and restaurant, conference/function centre, kids club, plus playground and massage options all available at management's discretion.
Ideal for anyone wanting a weekender escape, just an hour from Hornsby, you can clock off from work and head up for a perfect weekend out on The Lake, at the beach or by the pool, and when you're not using the property, you can be picking up an income, with full resort accommodation management on the grounds looking after it, with Air Bnb and other external holiday or permanent letting agents also allowed.
Rent it as little, or as much as you like, and enjoy the tax benefits of negative gearing too.
The front porch is perfect to chill out, and enjoy an afternoon wine or beer ,watching the sun go down over the resort, with the beautiful landscaping perfectly screening you from the road.
Step inside and discover light filled open plan living that flows to the kitchen, which features extras other terraces do not, as the owner lives here.
For starters there's a modern kitchen, with so much more storage and pantry space, along with the addition of a much more spacious laundry, with a downstairs toilet, and plenty of built in storage, which the original terraces did not have.
Add new hard flooring, it's perfect for kids and grandkids' spills, and also provides a much more contemporary look than the original carpet, perfect for after a swim at the Rafferty's sandy beach.
