30 Ashley Street, Marks Point, NSW 2280

Come and live your best life on the flat, where you can walk and ride to everything, in one of Lake Macquarie's best kept secret suburbs.

Blessed with stunning waterways, sub tropical rainforest walks, a lovely little village community cafe and shopping strip, with everything you could wish for and more, just a bit over an hour North of Hornsby, Sydney.

Whether you're getting ready to retire, or start a family, when saving money is a priority for you, but so too is location, and not having to break your back or your budget renovating, this home will come along and save the day!

Set in a quiet street on the flat, it's just a few minutes walk in one direction through subtropical rainforest to stunning Naru Beach, with its white sand and insanely beautiful aquamarine and turquoise water.

A beautifully safe place to swim with little ones and puppies, there's no big waves or strong currents.

Perfect for stand up paddle boarding or launching your boat or kayak, to head out for a morning on The Lake or Channel, or a big day out at sea.

Head the other way for a great coffee and breakfast at the local village cafe, or pick up a homemade dinner from the local deli/post office's resident chef.

Grab your milk, bread and paper at the mini grocer or even grab a haircut, all just minutes walking distance from home.

Drop off the kids or grandkids on route, at the lovely little local primary school.

Stroll to the marina or the golf course, with no shortage of great destinations to explore.

Feeling more active, then cycle over to Swansea, stopping at Blacksmiths and Pelican Beaches on the way. You're on the flat the whole time, so it's very easy riding.

If walking and riding aren't your thing, then jump in the car and be at Belmont or Swansea in less than 5 minutes, with their variety of supermarkets, services, restaurants, cafes, pubs and clubs!

Jump on the bus if you don't drive.

A perfect location, in a little known about paradise, where prices are on the move, but not yet as crazy as other nearby Lake Macquarie suburbs get in before they sky rocket too.

Now you're sold on the location, let's talk about the home itself.

Delightfully move in ready, the current owners came off waterfront, to be closer to an array of lifestyle options and day to day conveniences.

Originally from Sydney, they wanted a quiet village feel, but a little more in the way of city conveniences, like cafes, shops and services than they'd had at their waterfront.

They also wanted less work, so they had more time to enjoy the array of lifestyle options on tap so close to home.

A big backyard to mow was of no interest, but they still liked to be outside and entertain outdoors, and they loved being able to cool down in their own, very easy to look after pool.

Being brick and tile, they knew they were off the hook for lots of painting, and with plentiful garaging for vehicles, workshops and storage, hubby was happy.

The lady of the house loved all the different living options too.

From lazing on the covered front deck, to warming up inside the front sitting room, enjoying a cuppa looking on to the deck and outside.

Inside, she and hubby could watch TV together in the airy open style front living.

Slipping out to rear living overlooking the pool, when their TV choices clashed or grandkids were visiting.

The central location of the generous open kitchen worked, linking both front and rear living areas, but with a door off the kitchen letting you isolate noise between the 2 spaces.

Looking nothing like it looks now, these owners saw the potential and did the hard work, getting rid of the grandpa feeling older interior and freshening it up with new flooring and painting throughout the entire interior, adding lovely plantation shutters and ducted air to finish it off superbly.

A contemporary new white kitchen, with island bench made all the difference, with a big window letting you keep an eye on grandkids in the pool.

Running front to back, down a dedicated hallway, the master bedroom was split from the other 2 spare bedrooms, by a big and very tidy bathroom, a second toilet off the laundry coming in handy when you're entertaining outside or by the pool.

With just enough lawn front and back, kids and puppies had grass to play on, but weekends would never be wasted on hours of mowing!
