Welcome to Paradise on the Hawkesbury. An extremely unique offering filled with peace and beauty, a place where time appears to have stopped, where there is only you, natural surrounds, pure clean air and a deep waterfront where you can reflect on how good life really can be...simply unplug and relax! Our newly renovated house has truly breathtaking views from almost every room and entertaining areas. Enjoy fishing, kayaking, swimming and paddle boarding from our jetty or small tidal beach. A beautiful, spacious, newly renovated house located on the idyllic waterfront of the Hawkesbury River only a 1-hour drive from Sydney. THE PROPERTY IS ONLY ACCESSIBLE BY BOAT (boat hire, pickup and water taxi details provided below). Our home is the closest boat ride to land (boat launch) in the area. Nothing can compare to the untouched natural beauty and idyllic setting of this striking waterfront residence. This luxurious private home is set within the exclusive enclave of Marlow. The accommodation features 3 bedrooms - a master queen riverfront bedroom with en suite, a riverfront king bedroom (which can be configured as 2 king singles on request) and another queen bedroom. All beds have electric blankets. We have a sleeper couch in the lounge, please contact us if you'll be using it. All linen and bath towels are supplied, please bring your own swimming towels. Although the house is ideally suited for 3 couples or 1-2 families, the stunning setting, complete with spa is perfect for a romantic getaway for 2. The house has 2 modern bathrooms, gourmet kitchen, large open plan lounge and dining area, 2 fabulous entertaining decks with outdoor dining and lounges, stunning outdoor sandstone open fireplace & undercover entertaining area. Glass sliding doors take you out to the entertaining decks which have both a gas and coal BBQ. It's an entertainer’s paradise. The lounge has a smart TV with Stan and Netflix (with your account login) and bedrooms have TVs with Chromecast. There is WiFi at the house, but this can be erratic. Optus provides the best phone signal. Spend your time fishing from the jetty (you may even catch your dinner!), paddling our kayaks (or bring your own), stand-up paddle boarding and swimming. Kayaks, paddle board & fishing rods are supplied. The Hawkesbury is a tidal river, please use caution and always wear a life jacket (provided). Alternatively, relaxing on the sun drenched decks (even during winter the north facing aspect and river locality makes for a very warm deck), cooling off with a swim in the river, or on cooler nights warming up at sunset in the hot tub watching the stars. The sunsets from the deck are nothing short of spectacular. If you are feeling adventurous, there's no track or path to follow, but feel free to explore the walk at the back of the house. The Hawkesbury offers birdwatching or you can chill with visits from some of our native guests including goannas or the occasional wallaby. Nearby, by boat only access, there are secluded sandy beaches, some lovely walks or dining at the Berowra Waters Inn, The Spencer Thai, The Anchor Spencer (live music on Sundays) or the world renowned Saddles Restaurant. Basic supplies are provided (oil, salt, pepper, sugar, teabags). Please remember to bring your own food. If you have a boat or tinny, limited supplies can be bought at The Anchor, Spencer. Alternatively, it’s a 15-min drive into Gosford’s major supermarkets, from Greenmans Caravan Park.
