31 Arcadia Street, Arcadia Vale, NSW, 2283, Australia

Contemporary interiors, a superb alfresco setting and a clear view of Secret Bay that stretches across the lake to the sand islands have given this dream home its winning edge. Offering plenty of room to relax and unwind with open plan living forming the heart of the home and five bedrooms staged across two of its three levels, its layout and crisp finishes certainly throw out some serious holiday home vibes. Miles away from the predictable, each room is generous in scale and its idyllic north-to-rear aspect beams sunshine inside, filling the interior with bright natural sunlight. Entertainers will be hosting family and friends at every opportunity on the lake-facing deck – not only is it large enough for a crowd, but your guests will be mesmerized by your daily view. A versatile lower level includes a bathroom and laundry and plenty of storage or workshop space. Along with a double garage, wide side access provides you a spot to park your campervan or boat and there is enough room to add a shed in the backyard if desired (STCA).

Inclusions are impressive too, with Smeg appliances complementing the stone-finished kitchen, an Acton 15kw inverter ducted AC with Wi-Fi capability keeping life comfortable, a top-notch security system including cameras, intercom and an alarm giving peace of mind, and a 6.6kw solar system reducing power bills.

A blissful lakeside suburb, Arcadia Vale is a quiet hamlet known for its community spirit, and this home's location 550m from the water's edge places all of Lake Macquarie's on-water activities at your fingertips.
