About this property
The Boathouse- Unwind at this tranquil, absolute waterfront, luxury Boathouse nestled on the edge of
Welcome to The Boathouse - a stunning absolute-waterfront escape that blends luxe Hampton’s elegance with laid-back lakeside vibes. Designed for two, this dreamy retreat sits right on the edge of Lake Macquarie, complete with a private jetty, shared boat ramp, full Smeg kitchen, wet bar, and an expansive deck made for slow mornings or sunset cocktails. From the moment you arrive, The Boathouse invites you to unwind, breathe deep, and indulge in effortless luxury. Designed with your privacy in mind, it has a discrete and private entrance via a stepping stone pathway that leads down to the waterfront, along with private gated access to the waterfront reserve.
Surrounded by lush gardens and a tranquil waterfront reserve, this elevated oasis comes alive at night, glowing softly under the twinkle of solar lights. Throw open the full-width bi-fold doors and let the gentle lake breeze drift through, blurring the line between indoors and out. Whether you're reclining on a sun lounger beneath a thatched umbrella or dipping your toes off the jetty, every moment here is pure serenity wrapped in style.

Things to do nearby

• Cast a line or take a dip straight off your own private jetty
• Discover peaceful walking paths and tranquil waterways just moments from your door
• Paddle the day away - bring a kayak or paddleboard and explore the lake at your own pace
