Description

MESSAGE FROM THE OWNERS; "HURRY, book now for your perfect summer holiday - this is one of the most popular holiday-rental properties in Nelson Bay. It will soon be fully booked out for the season. So to avoid disappointment, please ENQUIRE TODAY".

‘Heavens Gate’ is an exotic mansion nestled among natural bushland on the north-facing hillside overlooking Nelson Bay (sleeps up to 8 adults plus up to 4 children - maximum of 12 people).

NOTE: 'HEAVENS GATE' IS AN EXCLUSIVE HOLIDAY DESTINATION - IT IS NOT A PARTY-HOUSE FOR TEENAGERS OR 20-SOMETHINGS. NO ROWDY PARTIES ARE ALLOWED! Weddings, BBQ parties, bucks parties, hens nights, corporate functions, schoolies and pets are NOT permitted under any circumstances.

As you can see from the photos, the view is quite simply SENSATIONAL! From almost every room, you’ll be gazing through the twin volcanic peaks of Port Stephens heads and out across the sparkling Pacific Ocean to the islands beyond. The view is so breathtaking and so spectacular; you’ll think you’re in Rio or Hawaii.

This is truly one of the most magnificent houses you’ll find anywhere on the coast of Australia. And why wouldn’t it be? ‘Heavens Gate’ is a multi-million dollar, award-winning, architect-designed masterpiece that fits beautifully into the landscape like a hand into a glove.

Here's what one recent guest wrote in our Guest Book:
"We have stayed in many holiday homes over the years - in all states of Australia and overseas. 'Heavens Gate' definitely stands out as the most spectacular and comfortable home we've experienced. Some of the things we LOVED - the front door!!! (it is a 200-year-old door from a Chinese monastery) So much character! The downstairs bathroom: the luxury of bathing while watching the sun rise over the ocean! Absolute BLISS!! The furniture is tasteful, comfortable and beautiful - whoever did the interior decoration has an excellent eye. This magnificent home fits all the criteria for a fantastic, relaxing holiday: location, design and stunning views. We are already planning a return visit to this magical haven. Thanks so much for the chance to experience this incredible home."

‘Heavens Gate’ boasts 5 bedrooms (4 queen bedrooms plus one with 4 singles) and sleeps up to 8 adults plus 4 children. It also has 3 bathrooms plus 2 separate toilets, 2 kitchens, an enormous laundry, several entertaining areas and sundecks, and a huge double garage plus parking for 4 extra cars. It will comfortably accommodate 8 adults plus 4 children.
EVERY BEDROOM HAS A WONDERFUL OCEAN VIEW! And every bedroom opens onto a sundeck.

This gorgeous house is all about space, luxury and unsurpassed views.
'Heavens Gate' consists of two wings:
The WEST WING is on three levels – see floor plan in the Image Gallery.
The middle floor features a spacious, Asian-inspired entertaining pavilion with high-ceilings, open-plan kitchen, lounge and dining area, a home-theatre alcove, and a huge north-facing sundeck accessed via concertina doors that blur the boundaries between outside and inside.
Perched above this pavilion is the master bedroom – with splendid views, walk-in robe, a lavish en-suite, and its own private sundeck for moonlight seclusion or total breakfast indulgence.

Below the pavilion is the main accommodation floor with 3 more bedrooms (two with queen pillow-top beds and one with 2 sets of bunk beds – normally, the kids’ room) all with water views. This floor also has a full bathroom (including a deep, luxurious bath), separate toilet and the laundry.
The EAST WING is like an adjoining private retreat. It boasts its own kitchen; full bathroom; queen pillow-top bed, lounge and dining areas; and its own private north-facing sundeck looking out across the ocean.

From ‘Heavens Gate’, it’s about a 15-minute walk (3-minutes drive) into the vibrant heart of Nelson Bay with all its cafes, award-winning restaurants and plentiful shopping; and about a 3-minute drive to a selection of delightful beaches and parks. The Welcome Folder at the house tells you all about the best of everything and gives detailed directions on how to get around.

‘Heavens Gate’ is – in a word – heavenly. But, as you might expect; it’s not cheap. However, when you walk into the house for the first time, you’ll immediately realise... it’s worth every cent (for an indication of our pricing, scroll to the calendar and hover your curser over the dates you are interested in).
