85 Showground Road, Narara, NSW 2250

A unique opportunity exists here to purchase an iconic Narara landmark offering the perfect balance of space, lifestyle, tranquility and home business all wrapped up in one extremely convenient package - a truly special place where nature, lifestyle and business harmoniously blend. Nestled among lush greenery, this unique waterfront reserve property offers more than just a house and a shop — it’s an experience!

Imagine waking up to the gentle chorus of bellbirds, their melodic calls echoing through the trees. Step outside with your morning coffee, and you might be greeted by Nigel, the resident water dragon, basking in the sun or curiously watching over the property as if he, too, is part of the welcoming committee.

Your home is a serene retreat, surrounded by the sights and sounds of the natural world. Large windows frame picturesque views, allowing you to feel immersed in nature even while indoors.

Discover an exceptional opportunity to own a spacious family residence with a commercial shop perfectly positioned on the same 1,161m² waterfront reserve block. This impressive property effortlessly blends a large family home with a purpose-built commercial space, offering an unparalleled lifestyle that caters to both residential comfort and business potential.

Step inside the expansive family home, where four well-appointed bedrooms — all complete with built-in robes — ensure ample storage and convenience. The generous open-plan living areas create a harmonious flow throughout the home, while a substantial family room presents the versatility to be transformed into a potential fifth bedroom, an inviting space for relaxation, or an inspiring creative area. Three separate bathrooms, including a private ensuite to the master, elevate the daily routine, and additional thoughtful touches include a handy kitchenette on the lower level, perfect for informal meals or entertaining guests, and a fully equipped kitchen upstairs boasting a nearly new fridge-freezer that promises both style and functionality.

Designed to maximize comfort in every season, the home features ducted air-conditioning on the upper level and a split-system unit downstairs, ensuring a cool retreat from the Australian heat. Multiple outdoor entertaining spaces beckon you to embrace alfresco living. Enjoy lazy afternoons on the full-length covered deck at the ground level, or elevate your evenings on the equally impressive, covered balcony upstairs. A dedicated pool area enhances the lifestyle experience, complete with its own covered deck, a striking hexagonal bandstand-style deck, an in-ground salt-water swimming pool, and a luxurious hydro-spa situated on the bottom deck — ideal for unwinding after a long day.

At the rear of the property, a purpose-built shop awaits, having formerly served as a long-standing seafood outlet. This well-designed commercial space comes complete with a counter display cabinet, a dedicated fridge, a twin industrial sink, and an efficient workspace featuring a fourth toilet and shower, making it ready for immediate business use or simply set it up to your liking ready to work from home. In addition to five secure garages — one of which now houses cool rooms and an industrial ice maker — the property offers parking for up to eight additional vehicles and even has room for a large caravan, motor home, or boat.

Waterfront enthusiasts will relish the direct access to Narara Creek, where its saltwater mingles with the playful presence of plentiful fish. For boat lovers and keen fishers, the convenience of launching your boat directly from your own backyard means weekends spent navigating Brisbane Water, where bream, flathead, and silver trevally await. Kayaks are included as an extra bonus, ensuring you are ready to explore the serene waterways at a moment’s notice.

As the day winds down, enjoy a peaceful moment on the veranda, where golden light filters through the trees, and the gentle rustling of leaves reminds you that this isn’t just a property — it’s a sanctuary.

Location is key, and this property does not disappoint. A brief three-minute journey takes you to Narara Station and the bustling Wyoming Shopping Centre, while Gosford High School and St Philips Christian College are conveniently located just 1.2 kilometres away. Gosford Hospital is within easy reach, and with the M1 motorway accessible in under 10 kilometres from either the Ourimbah or Gosford turn-offs, connectivity is never an issue.
If you’ve ever dreamed of a lifestyle where business meets tranquility, where nature is your neighbour, and where every day feels like a retreat, then this is the place for you.

Come and see what makes this home, shop, and little slice of paradise so special. Nigel might even say hello!
