Sarah and I live in Sydney and we are not too many years from retirement! We have 2 small dogs and 2 adult children who are both about to marry and both love Smiths Lake.
Why they chose this property
We built this tranquil Eco House in 2017/2018 on a block chosen because it was surrounded by giant and beautiful trees and is opposite Smiths Lake. It is one of the few lakeside properties in Smiths that doesn’t face South or West, plus it’s protected from violent southerly winds by a hill. Also, unlike many houses on the coast, we can sit on the deck when the prevailing NorEasters are howling - the trees soften it while still cooling us.
We planted over 600 native plants with all seeds sourced locally to create an authentic bush retreat. We love creating landscapes that are harmonious and private - previous gardens we created have been featured on Gardening Australia and Burke’s Backyard.
The house is one of the safest in Smiths Lake regarding bushfires - being at the bottom of the hill and adjacent to the lake. Also the house was constructed to be as bushfire safe as possible with non-flammable decks, metal fly screens, metal walls, metal gutter guards, etc.

What makes this property unique
There is a table tennis table in the garage - park your car on the driveway and set it up in the garage. Also a 2 person/2 dog kayak plus an aluminium dinghy that holds up to 5 people, both stored next to the lake and easy to launch over the beach. Life jackets are available plus a couple of fishing rods. Enjoy!
