148 Settlement Point Road

Mornings begin here on the balcony, coffee in hand, sunlight on the water as the breeze moves through the louvres. A view that isn't occasional, it's yours. This home is striking from the street. Crisp white panelling meets charcoal framing, cascading greenery adding depth and presence. Elevated and beautifully composed, it holds its position with quiet confidence. Step through the gates and the entry reveals itself behind tropical gardens. A sheltered porch awaits, cocoon swing chairs moving gently in the breeze. The lower level opens wide, extending over 9m in length. Designed to adapt- rumpus, games retreat, gym, ultimate man cave, generous storage or a domain for larger celebrations. Polished concrete floors add a clean architectural edge. At the rear, an all-weather alfresco invites connection with a concrete bar, outdoor kitchen with BBQ and integrated fridges and built-in seating, setting the tone for cocktails and conversation. A timber walkway leads to a pavilion and heated swimming pool, surrounded by lush landscaping. A bathroom and separate laundry service this level, while a concealed twin carport provides secure parking with drive-thru access to a spacious backyard shed. Upstairs, the river reveals itself in full. Sliding glass doors open to an elevated terrace beneath a vaulted ceiling, Balinese fans turning gently overhead. Living and dining are centred around a kitchen featuring a grand stone island, stainless steel benchtops, induction cooktop, self-cleaning oven and integrated rangehood that moves in quiet sync with the cooktop, as if the two are in constant conversation. The layout also offers a walk-in pantry, discreet study nook, and river view lounge room. VJ panelling, new plantation shutters and upgraded hybrid flooring enhance the relaxed coastal aesthetic. Four bedrooms sit on this level, including a flexible accommodation wing for guests, teenagers, or extended family. The indulgent parent retreat features a window seat overlooking the pool, double-sided walk-in robe with dedicated make-up station and a beautifully appointed ensuite. The main bathroom is equally impressive. Solar panels enhance efficiency, with ducted zoned air conditioning upstairs and split system below. Opposite, there's always something to watch. Paddleboarders, cast masters, watercraft, dolphins even a seal was once spotted here. Just a short stroll to cafés, retail, and dining precincts, yet it's the feeling of coming back to this view that stays with you. - Wide uninterrupted views across the Hastings River - Expansive dual-level layout with resort style entertaining - Heated swimming pool with coloured feature lighting - Concrete outdoor kitchen with servery, bar & seating - Stone waterfall-edge island, premium induction cooktop - Self-cleaning oven and intelligent rangehood integration - King-sized parents' retreat with ensuite & walk-in robe - Private wing with flexibility for self-contained living - Stunning bathrooms including make-up station in ensuite - Plantation shutters, hybrid floors, VJ architectural detailing - Incredible river view facing terrace with vaulted ceiling - Sunset vistas, regular sightings of dolphins, passing watercraft - Short troll to cafes, waterfront picnic area, shopping Property Details: Council Rates: $3,900 p/a Rental Assessment: $1,100 - $1,200 p/w Land Size: 790.4sqm approx Disclaimer: The information contained in the advertising of this property is not based on any independent enquiries or knowledge of the agents, and the vendor and agents expressly disclaim any liability arising therefrom.
