It is a spacious, relaxing home surrounded by palm trees and birdsong. A concrete boat ramp and Frothy Coffee Cafe (with boat hire) are just 20 metres away. Relax and enjoy the tree-studded, waterfront location. Watch the children playing in the well-equipped playground or relax on the balcony with views over the water as the sun is setting. Fish, kayak, picnic, explore the edges of the lake or swim within just a few level steps of the house.
Our home is pet friendly with a safe and securely fenced back yard (approx. 1 metre high). Please contact owner to make arrangements if you wish to bring your pets.
For bookings of up to 5 people you will have full access to the main house which has four bedrooms and one bathroom and one ensuite. For bookings of 6 or more people (up to a total of 11 guests) you will also have access to an additional bedroom/ensuite which is separate from the main house.
There are many beautiful local beaches stretching from Seal Rocks in the south to Seven Mile Beach in the north as well as some lovely National Parks which are all just a short drive away. The nearest surf beach is only 5 minutes away or you can paddle your kayak across the lake to the sandbar. The Pacific Palms area also has some lovely cafes/restaurants and nearby activities such as golf and tennis. It is a great place for families, friends and couples to relax right there or explore the beauty of the area.
The house has two storeys with balconies and water views from both levels. The main house has four queen size bedrooms, a bathroom downstairs and an ensuite upstairs. There is also a fifth queen bedroom with an ensuite (shower, basin, toilet) which is separate to the main house. The living and dining areas are at the front of the house downstairs. This is a large tiled open plan space with lots of windows and light-filled areas which provide privacy as well as gorgeous views across to the lake. There is a TV (with a built in slot for DVDs) in the lounge room as well as a collection of DVDs, books, board games for you and the children to enjoy.
For your comfort there is a reverse cycle air conditioner downstairs in the lounge/dining area. Each of the two upstairs bedrooms have an air conditioner and a ceiling fan. There are small fan heaters in the other bedrooms. During the winter months there are electric blankets on the beds.
The modern kitchen is clean and light with plenty of space to work if you like to cook up a storm. It is well-equipped with all the appliances you need. There is a full size 370 litre convertible refrigerator/freezer in the kitchen. There is a front loader washing machine, iron and ironing board also located in the laundry along with a spare gas bottle for the BBQ. There is also a dryer in the laundry but we do ask that you please make use of the clothes line outside and the clothes airers provided if you need them. There is seating for 10 at the extendable dining table and also a breakfast bar with seating for 3. Families with toddlers might like to use the children's table and toddler chairs for food as well as play.
There is a front verandah with bench seating and water views as well as an upstairs deck where you can relax and look across to the lake. The BBQ is in the back yard along with a wooden picnic table where family and friends can relax and enjoy a meal together. The picnic table is under cover and provides shade for outdoor dining or protection from the rain.
The four bedrooms in the main house all have queen size beds. The two bedrooms downstairs are smaller and would suit those in your group who may have difficulty with the stairs to the upper level. Access to the rear downstairs bedroom is through the bathroom or it has its own external doorway. Upstairs there are two bedrooms. One has a skylight as well as its own private covered balcony with views over the lake and park. There is also a sofa bed (comfortable for one person) and TV/DVD player in this room. The other upstairs bedroom has an ensuite and a narrow deck area.
There is a fifth bedroom outside, detached from the house and just a few steps from the back door. It has a queen bed and an ensuite. There is also a TV/DVD player for use with DVDs only as there is no free to air TV in this room. This detached bedroom may be suitable for teenagers or for those in your group who may wish to have more privacy.
Serendipity is an ideal location for families, friends and couples to relax and spend time together. Only three hours drive from Sydney.
You will have full access to the house and privacy during your stay. There is a keyless entry front door which is simple to operate and allows 24 hours access to our guests.
