52 Berne Street

Set at one of the highest points in Bateau Bay and quietly tucked away at the end of a cul-de-sac, 52 Berne Street offers a rare sense of elevation, light and calm a home that feels both grounded and removed from the everyday. Renovated and spanning three generous levels, this solid brick residence is north-facing, capturing winter sun and cooling sea breezes. A highlight is the sweeping views across Lake Tuggerah to the Watagans, and ocean glimpses out toward Terrigal. Established gardens and surrounding treetops create a peaceful, almost tree-house atmosphere, offering privacy without isolation. At the heart of the home, a gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances and custom detailing anchors the main living level, flowing seamlessly to multiple balconies and outdoor spaces. Whether hosting long lunches, evening drinks or quiet mornings in the sun, the home has been exceptionally designed for entertaining. Accommodation is generous and flexible, with four well-proportioned bedrooms including a spacious master suite with walk-in robe and stylish ensuite. Downstairs, the home provides outstanding versatility; it currently has a semi self-contained level for extended family or potential holiday accommodation.  Outside, the expansive backyard and established gardens offer rare scope to add a swimming pool, granny flat or enhanced outdoor entertaining area (STCA), while still preserving the home's natural setting and sense of space. Ideally positioned, the home is just minutes from Bateau Bay Square, offering supermarkets, cafés and everyday essentials. Forresters Beach and Shelley Beach are just a five-minute drive away, and Blue Bay can be reached in under 10-minutes, and Bateau Bay Beach only a 4 min drive or why not walk the short 1.6 km, providing easy access to some of the area's most pristine coastline. Quality schools, parks, coastal walks, lakefront activities and playgrounds are all close by, making this an exceptional location for families seeking lifestyle and convenience in equal measure. This elevated retreat delivers the very best of Bateau Bay living peaceful, connected and rich with future potential.
