Sitting right on the edge of Lake Macquarie, COAST@Bonnells is a one-of-a-kind waterfront estate offering three stylish, self-contained stays: The Cottage, The Hideaway, and The Boathouse. Whether you’re holidaying as a group or looking for a peaceful solo escape, this beautifully renovated former farmhouse lets you choose between gathering together or retreating to your own private sanctuary. With light-filled interiors, lush gardens, and direct lake access via a private jetty and shared boat ramp, this is a true fusion of lake house charm and boutique villa comfort.
Spread across three separate dwellings, the estate features a total of four bedrooms, three full kitchens, four outdoor entertaining areas, and thoughtful extras like a fire pit, EV charging station, and outdoor shower. It’s a destination designed for relaxed living, with polished touches like air conditioning, fast internet, and quality linen throughout. By day, explore the lake or laze by the lake. At night, solar-lit gardens set the mood for laid-back evenings with food, wine, and good company.
