“Serenity on the Waterfront” Relaxed Coastal Life

“Serenity on the Waterfront” oozes that relaxed creative coastal lifestyle that the Coal Coast is renowned for. Located within a small exclusive enclave of beachfront homes, Serenity is tucked away where the sea meets the verdant rain forest of the spectacular Illawarra escarpment. This is the place that time forgot! A short 70 minutes south of Sydney and 20 minutes north of Wollongong, and only a walk away from local cafes, you are guaranteed to feel as though you are a world away. Sit on the verandah and enjoy the expansive ocean views with easy access from your doorstep to a much coveted lawn, a small protected beach, ocean pool and the stunning black rock pools which boast a huge diversity of sea life. Stroll a little further to the patrolled Coledale beach for a surf lesson or to the locals’ favourite, Sharkies Beach. Be visited by rainbow lorikeets, while you whale watch or swing in the hammock enjoying your own company. Later in the day, settle back and watch the spectacular show as the sheer sandstone cliffs and forest disappear behind a cloak of clouds.
