Kataway is named after the beautiful bay the house overlooks on Myall Lake.
Kataway is situated on a private road offering uninterrupted views over park like gardens to Myall Lake at the front and unspoilt wooded hillside views from the rear of the house.
Kataway is a double story house featuring large open plan living spaces with timber and sisal flooring and high cathedral ceilings.
In the heat of the summer Kataway is light and bright catching the breezes off the lake.
The living spaces open onto a huge deck that allows you to take in views of the garden and the lake. Passing kangaroos and even the occasional koala can sometimes be spotted too.
The deck is furnished with timber lounge chairs & a great dining bar table with market umbrella. Its a great spot for breakfast, and afternoon nap or sunset cocktails.
The Webber bbq is out there too.
After a hard day on the lake, at the beach or exploring the surrounding countryside, it is comfort that you want and this is what you get at Kataway.
There are several separate relaxing areas for friends, family and children.
The decor is an eclectic mix of 50's style, French provincial, artworks and quirky decorative touches, huge comfortable sofas to stretch out on and plenty of armchairs to curl up on.
