Set well back from the street behind beautiful, established gardens and framed at the rear by serene bushland, this generous family home serves up space, privacy, and the soothing soundtrack of birdsong.

The crisp white Cape Cod-style façade gives way to a flexible floorplan featuring two oversized living areas anchored by a refurbished timber kitchen. Ducted a/c and a cosy winter fireplace keep things comfortable year-round, while polished timber floors and large picture windows invite in the light and leafy views. The main level includes a fifth bedroom alongside a renovated bathroom that's ideal for guests or as a private master, while upstairs, you'll find four more bedrooms, including one that's ideal as a nursery or home office, along with a beautifully updated family bathroom with twin shower.

Step outside to the new barbecue deck, a dreamy spot to relax, entertain, or simply soak up the natural backdrop. There's loads of space for the kids to roam and explore the backyard, which also offers direct access to the popular Fernleigh Track for morning walks, bike rides, or weekend adventures. A tandem garage with under-house storage takes care of the practicalities.

You're just minutes from Westfield Kotara, Charlestown Square, and the Fernleigh Track, with Dudley and Redhead beaches close by. Newcastle CBD and the harbour foreshore are just 10 minutes away, and Lake Macquarie is only a little further. It's the kind of location that puts everything on your family's radar without ever feeling busy.
