Quite likely the closest and most affordable true deep waterfront to the city... When life was simpler - Romantic. Serene. Private. Tranquil. Right on the water. The perfect getaway. Located within picturesque Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park is this classic 60's cottage built so close to the water you could fish from the window. Step back into a lifestyle where people had time for each other. When stimulating conversations were had instead of texting emoji's and when you attended elaborate dinner parties instead of going to a restaurant, then played cards or board games like 'Twister' and 'Cluedo' till the wee small hours of the morning. A time when we embraced outdoor interests such as fishing, swimming and kayaking, and there were no gaming consoles. The near original cottage has a beautiful lawn by the water, shaded by a Jacaranda tree and one of the last remaining private tidal sea swimming enclosures to enjoy on this pristine waterway. Facing north west, gaze across the deep water and the spectacular beauty that is the Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park with its thousands of hectares of untouched bushland. Lie on the pontoon on a summer's night and count the shooting stars amongst the endless starry background. With a comfortable, relaxed layout and modern conveniences you can choose to use it as a weekender or live there permanently and work from home with the artist's studio being an ideal and peaceful office space. You are only 12 minutes by car to Terrey Hills (The gateway to the Northern Beaches) with a choice of cafes, restaurants, grocers, schools and transport. Should you need to go to the city, it is an easy 35 minute drive from there. The home is well set up and is offered furnished, giving you the option to generate an income through holiday letting when you are not using it yourself. Get back to basics ... relax on the verandah with the water lapping so close it's like being on a boat. Fish off the floating pontoon to catch dinner with your favourite glass of wine as you watch the sun set, or head out on a kayak to explore and enjoy an alfresco dinner under the coloured dusk sky. Blink and you will miss this magnificent lifestyle opportunity.
