Peaceful Waterfront house Great View Private Jetty

Idyllic waterfront getaway easily accessible from Sydney by train. This is a family home with breathtaking panoramic waterfront views, with access to a private jetty--BYO own boat for the perfect waterside getaway. The central location is unbeatable—a 1 min walk from the train station and an Aldi supermarket, a 7 min drive from Gosford city centre with wonderful entertainment facilities and restaurants. 1.5 hours from Sydney by direct train from Central station to Point Clare!
The house is newly furnished, two stories tall, with frontyard and backyard space. There are two living areas both with floor-to-ceiling glass sliding doors with panoramic views of the waterfront. There are four bedrooms, with a queen bed, a double bed, and two bedrooms with two single beds respectively, sleeping a total of 8 people. There are three full bathrooms across the two floors. There's also a full kitchen and laundry with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Fresh linens are provided in every room, including towels.
Guests will have access to the entire home, with the exception of the garage and the BBQ.
Guests won’t be allowed to have parties, smoke, or make loud noises after 22:00.

There will be a welcome brochure inside the house on the upper landing. It should have all the information that you’ll need for your stay: please read the house rules carefully at the beginning of your stay.

We also supply the free Netflix, you and your family/ friends can enjoy it any time.

About Local eateries and activities:

The local cafe -Little Piggy, just cross the tunnel under the railway, opposite Aldi shop. I quite like their fresh cooked food and the nice coffee. They open from 7am -2pm Monday to Saturday. They are kindly to offer our Karoola guests free coffee if you order the meals there. Beside the cafe, you also can find the Thai restaurant, Chinese take away as well.

The Aldi supermarket is very convenient for you to shop all the necessary groceries they open 7 days.

With the 20 mins driving you can arrive at Bouddi National Park, https://www.nationalparks.nsw.gov.au/visit-a-park/parks/bouddi-national-park , it is the No.8 track in Australia and with the beautiful beach. You can sunbathe or swim there.
If you like swimming or having the sunbathing on the beach, there is some useful link you can find a few beautiful beaches in 10-20mins distance:
https://beachsafe.org.au/nsw/gosford/west-gosford

There are also some good restaurants in 3-10 mins driving distance, such as The Coast Bar&Grill in Gosford, the Boat House in Koolewong and The Box On The Water in Ettalong also there is a best Italian restaurant https://www.osteriailcoccia.com.au/.

We would highly recommend the Fisherman’s Wharf in Woy Woy. A 9 minute drive away from our home, you can buy fresh seafood here from the market to cook at home, takeaway freshly cooked seafood from the kiosk to eat along the water, or have a wonderful meal at the waterfront restaurant. The WWFW seafood platter for two is fantastic. https://www.woywoyfishermenswharf.com.au

Family reunion
My son was visiting from UK and wanted a nice quiet place to stay. We were concerned when we realised that it was opposite the railway line-but once in the house you hear nothing. Kitchen is well equipped and all was in working order. It would have been great to have some board or card games available. it is just a perfect place not to do anything and laze around on the deck. Helen was quick in responding to queries.

Absolutely stunning view and a great location
The view is fantastic, the property is large and open, and overall there is nothing to complain about. I do have a few remarks, you can't swim in the water (due to council rules-but, many beaches are close), a few extra towels would be great (just in case of getting one dirty accidentally), and the place is a bit old (guessing built in the 70s-80s?), but you'll only notice the age with some of the fittings and style. Nevertheless, the price is well suited to this house on all fronts. I will happily go back again and again.

Fabulous place
What a joy waking up to the view every morning, and the sunrises were spectacular. The house was perfect for a family stay. It was large enough for everyone to stay and not be on top of each other. Helen was a very attentive host and had equipped the beautiful house with everything you could need. We really enjoyed our week's stay, especially the extra "guests" in the front garden, where Mama Duck had laid a dozen eggs. We were excited to see a couple hatch before we left. We would definitely recommend this home.

Beautiful Location but disappointed.
The house is in a good location and has beautiful views. Yard is tidy and maintained. Inside the house requires a bit more TLC. TV Remote required batteries, purchased these ourselves. . Toaster didnt work, the host didnt respond for 10 hours when notified of this problem. We generally cook our own breakfast when away to save on meal costs and a toaster is essential. Broken blinds in dining/lounge that dont open, Exhaust fan in ensuite seized and doesnt work, Top Hinge on door to master bedroom needs refixing. Bulbs blown in house and require replacing. TV had finger prints and marks all over it, not covid clean standard. We did receive small refund to reimburse us for Batteries and broken toaster.

Excellent water view
We chose this property because of its long jetty. The home is spacious. From both levels we could see Brisbane Waters, a true water front. As for fishing, we did catch some off the jetty. We let them all go because they are tiny. We enjoyed the process.

Lovely home with beautiful view.
A very special house that offers not just good, clean and comfortable accommodation, but also an amazing waterfront vista from the large open plan lounge and kitchen area, the ground floor deck and bedroom, and the private jetty. You feel like you're sitting right on top of the beautiful Brisbane waterway. The panorama is spectacular. In the evenings we gathered for drinks on the balcony and took in the magical tinkling lights illuminating the Gosford harbour area. Truly special. I was lucky enough to view three glorious sunrises. If you're looking for a relaxing, rewarding get-away, this house ticks all the boxes. It is also a very short walk from a supermarket, bottle shop, cafe, take-away options and the railway station. Helen was an exceedingly helpful and generous host. Thank you. A truly memorable experience, Denise

Not good value for money
We have stayed in many properties of similar price range, but what we found that basic things are not in the property. The kitchen is not appropriately stocked, not enough cutlery, small bowls, cups and plates and even the small items like grater etc were not there. The pressure of water in the shower is too low and it seems the shower heads needs thorough cleaning or replacement, as the shower trickles and is all over. The sliding doors are very old and hard to operate. The size of bedrooms is quite small (for that price). The owner should invest in new pots and pans (either steel or glazed cast iron as the existing non-stick ones are not clean and cooking in them seems unhealthy. An overall impression and feeling was that the property is sub-standard. The positive aspect is the view from the living room. We have stayed in many properties in Kiama, Southern Highlands, Coffs Harbour etc. which have similar price range, but the feeling after staying was "WOW". As per our experience, we would score this property 5 out of 10.

Best accommodation and wedding venue
When Covid started, we had a sudden change on our wedding plan that’s supposed to be overseas. We looked for a house that will accommodate our intimate wedding. Helen was so amazing to let us use her property for our special day. She went above and beyond just hosting us, she answers our questions and even gave some recommendations from neighbours and friends of where to order flowers, etc. she communicates so well and quick. she always says yes to our requests and she made sure the house and the whole property was ready for us to use. She even gave us a wedding gift.. soooo thoughtful! The breathtaking view was perfect for our big day. We used the backyard and deck for the event. The house was also huge for our family of 8 to stay. It is sparkling clean. It has all the amenities you need plus more. Our families loved the place and have told us they will also be booking the house. We will definitely come back this year and the coming years!!

What a weekend!
My friends and I stayed at the house over the weekend and it was a wonderful stay. The location is gorgeous, there was so much space in the house and everything was neat and comfortable. The bedrooms were all comfortable too and 3 different bathrooms made life very easy. The house was perfect. We were all very disappointed when our weekend came to an end! Finally, the communication with the owner couldn’t have been any better. Helen made the process so simple. After the weekend my friends and I said that we’d definitely stay again.

Celebration
Fantastic location for people to gather for a celebration. Great for travellers from Sydney/Newcastle and interstate as the train line that links all places is in walking distance. Plenty of parking too for cars. The layout of the house too lends itself for a fun time with an amazing view to top it off. Please note however Jetty is not suitable for boats to tie up due to the low low tide. Also a larger fridge to accommodate 8 people is needed. Host was very responsive to any questions we needed. House was spotless and well equipped with provisions. A very memorable time was had by all. Many thanks.
