As you pass down the leafy path towards this exquisitely harmonious pavilion, you could be entering the grounds of a serene mountaintop Zen temple. It is an ambience that is fulfilled inside, from the simple elegance of the lounge area to the sento-like bathing room surrounded by its own private courtyard garden. If holidays are about escaping the distracting complexity of over-scheduled urban life, then Nor'easter qualifies as a true holiday home.
Nor'easter's effortless architectural brilliance is powerfully magnified by its frankly incredible location, a hillside observation post with uninterrupted ocean and lake views. The view from the deck in the late afternoon, caressed by the cooling northeasterly sea breeze (hence the property name), as you sip a cold spritzer could not be improved. Just down the bank are the surf beach or the calm, sandy sea pools of Smiths Lake (perfect for kids).
Befitting its style, the house is equipped with the finest accessories, from the home theatre to the gourmet kitchen and entertainment deck with barbecue. And you are also just a lovely amble from the local shops and the coffee shop on the jetty. Location: 275km or 3¼ hours north of Sydney. RA 27 D12.
