Glass walls. One hundred and eighty degrees of Pacific Ocean. Whales from the deck. Welcome to Sandcastle.
Sandcastle is an award-winning architectural home designed by Jon King — perched high on the sun-bleached dunes of Forresters Beach, glass-wrapped, and feeling genuinely suspended above the sea. For guests who want more than a beautiful view — who want to live inside one — there is nowhere else on the Central Coast like this.

Location Feature
Tranquil retreat by an unspoilt, uncrowded beach
Sandcastle is set in the tranquil, nature-surrounded suburb of Forresters Beach, close to a beautiful, lightly visited stretch of coastline. This peaceful, residential pocket lets the days slow right down — ideal for guests seeking serenity and a genuine seaside escape. The beach itself is a gorgeous, uncrowded expanse of sand backed by green reserves, perfect for long walks, surfing and quiet swims. Despite the secluded feel, the vibrant dining, bars and boutique shopping of Terrigal are just a short drive south, and Erina Fair shopping centre is close by. The Wamberal Lagoon, scenic... headland walks and a string of other beaches are also within easy reach for exploring.

Highlights
The Space
Sandcastle: An Architectural Marvel Above Forresters Beach
Perched high on the sun-bleached dunes where the bush meets the sea, Sandcastle is more than a home—it's an experience in transparency and light. Designed by the award-winning Jon King, this glass-wrapped sanctuary feels as though it is floating above the Pacific, offering a front-row seat to the raw, majestic beauty of the Central Coast.
What we Love:
Location: You are perfectly positioned between the wild blue of the ocean and the emerald green of the western bush reserve. It is a rare, private world where the only soundtrack is the rhythm of the waves hitting the shore below.
Design: A true masterpiece of modern living, the home is a play of light and shadow. The living areas seem suspended in mid-air, creating a breathtaking sense of weightlessness as you gaze out across the infinite horizon.
Living Areas:
Open Plan Living: The heart of the home is bathed in golden coastal light. Whether you're curled up with a book or hosting an evening of laughter, the seamless flow of the open-plan space makes every moment feel expansive and connected to the sea.
Rumpus Room:
Tucked away on the top level, this extra space is the perfect retreat for kids to claim as their own or for a quiet moment away from the main social hub.
Outdoor Spaces: Step out onto the stunning undercover deck to breathe in the salt air. Whether you're sipping your morning coffee while watching migrating whales or enjoying a quiet afternoon in the timber courtyard, these spaces are designed to immerse you in nature.
access:
A grand set of stairs leads you from the street level up into your private lookout. For ease of arrival, rear lane access is available, making it simple to drop off your luggage and groceries before settling into your retreat.
Kitchen & Amenities:
Modern Kitchen: This is a space designed for the culinary enthusiast. With its walk-in pantry and sleek finishes, it's the perfect place to prepare a feast while still being part of the conversation in the living area.
Work From Home:
For those who can't leave work entirely behind, the dedicated workspaces offer the most inspiring office view you'll ever experience.
Laundry: Tucked away for convenience, providing everything you need for a seamless, long-term stay.
Bedrooms & Bathrooms:
Master Suite: Wake up to the sun rising over the ocean. This serene sanctuary features a private ensuite and views so vast you'll feel like you're waking up on the edge of the world.
Additional Bedrooms:
Three further bedrooms are cleverly positioned on platforms above the living zones. Guests can enjoy their own private "pods" with glazed screens that offer glimpses of the blue water, comfortably accommodating guests across two King beds, one Queen bed, and two Single beds.
Bathrooms: The home features three full bathrooms.
Sandcastle is more than just a place to stay; it is a place to reconnect. Whether you are sharing a sunset meal on the deck, watching the local birdlife from the courtyard, or simply drifting off to sleep with the ocean as your neighbor, every moment here is designed to inspire. Come and experience the transparency of coastal living in a home that truly breathes with the sea.
Neighborhood
Forresters Beach is a peaceful coastal suburb on the Central Coast of New South Wales, situated between Terrigal and Bateau Bay. It’s best known for its long, sandy beach with reef breaks that attract surfers, quiet rock pools, and scenic ocean views — offering a more relaxed and uncrowded beach experience compared with some neighbouring towns.
The area has a friendly, laid-back community vibe with a small local hub of cafés, boutiques and services just minutes from the shoreline. It’s also surrounded by natural attractions like Wyrrabalong National Park, where coastal walking trails and lookouts provide panoramic views, whale watching opportunities, and peaceful bushland settings.
With a mix of relaxed residential streets, beachside homes and holiday rentals, Forresters Beach appeals to families, surfers, retirees and anyone seeking a serene coastal lifestyle. Its proximity to larger nearby centres like Terrigal and Erina means residents and visitors also enjoy convenient access to shops, dining and transport while still benefiting from the area’s natural beauty and quieter seaside charm.

string(602) "Wamberal Lagoon in the backyard. Terrigal Beach a five-minute walk. Welcome to Lake House.
Lake House is a beautifully designed split-level home in Wamberal’s coveted Golden Triangle — a rare lakefront position with direct water access, a glass floor that stops guests mid-step, bi-fold doors opening to a covered lake-view terrace, and the golden sands of Terrigal Beach and the Esplanade café strip just five minutes on foot. For large families and groups who want the lake, the beach, and the best of Terrigal without ever needing the car, there is nowhere else like this on the Central Coast."
["space"]=>
string(4202) "Lake House sits on one of Wamberal’s most coveted streets — the Golden Triangle, where the lagoon is literally in the backyard and Terrigal Beach is a five-minute flat walk away. The home is designed around this extraordinary position: a split-level layout with a remarkable glass floor that captures both levels in one view, bi-fold doors that open the main living areas directly to a covered terrace above the lagoon, and two generous living zones that give a group of ten the space to be together and apart. Five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a modern kitchen make the practical side as good as the aspirational. Arrive. Unpack. Walk to the beach. The car stays where you parked it.
WHAT WE LOVE
The Lakefront Position:
Wamberal Lagoon is directly accessible from the backyard — kayak from the property, paddleboard on the still water, fish from the bank at sunrise, or simply sit on the terrace and watch the lagoon change light from morning to evening. The Golden Triangle is Wamberal’s most prestigious address, and Lake View sits right at the heart of it. This kind of direct lakefront access, in a position this central, at a scale that sleeps ten — it simply doesn’t exist elsewhere on the Central Coast.
The Glass Floor:
A glass floor at the heart of the split-level layout is the feature no guest expects and every guest photographs. It’s a conversation piece, an architectural statement, and the single most distinctive detail in any holiday home in Wamberal. Guests who stay at Lake View remember the glass floor — and it’s the reason they tell everyone else about it.
The Terrace & Bi-Fold Doors:
The covered terrace overlooking the lagoon is the heart of outdoor life at Lake View — accessible directly through bi-fold doors from the main living areas, and perfect for long group lunches, sundowner drinks, and evening dinners as the lagoon settles into the dusk. The indoor-outdoor flow is seamless, the water is always visible, and this is where the best moments of every stay happen.
The Kitchen & Living Areas:
A modern kitchen with island bench and quality appliances opens to the dining area and out to the terrace — designed for easy group cooking at every meal. Two separate living zones give the group the flexibility that large families specifically need: adults in one space, children in another, everyone under the same roof.
Bedrooms & Bathrooms:
> Bedroom 1: Queen bed, water views, private ensuite
> Bedroom 2: Queen bed, built-in robes
> Bedroom 3: Queen bed, built-in robes
> Bedroom 4: Queen bed, built-in robes
> Bedroom 5: Flexible sleeping (confirm configuration)
> 3 full bathrooms
The Location:
Lake View Road sits in Wamberal’s Golden Triangle — the most coveted pocket of this relaxed Central Coast suburb, where the lagoon meets the residential streets that lead directly to Terrigal. Terrigal Beach, the Esplanade, the rock pool, and The Haven headland are all five minutes away on foot. Avoca Beach and the broader Central Coast are a short drive for day trips. And when you’re done exploring — the lagoon is in the backyard waiting for you.
The Seasons:
Lake View earns its position in every season — and the lagoon changes character beautifully with each one. Summer means lake mornings, terrace lunches, and the five-minute walk to Terrigal Beach that never gets old no matter how many times you do it. The school holidays fill fast and for good reason — this is the lakefront-and-beach combination families plan trips around and return to year after year. Autumn brings the lagoon into its most golden and still season, the terrace into long afternoon use, and the Esplanade into its most relaxed mood.
Winter is when Lake View’s position really shows its quality — the Terrigal Esplanade restaurants are warm and unhurried, the lagoon is still and extraordinary in the morning light, and the five-minute walk to the beach belongs to the early risers who know the secret. Spring brings it all back to warmth. Whatever season brings your family here — the lake is in the backyard and Terrigal is five minutes away. There is nothing else quite like this on the Central Coast."
["neighborhood"]=>
string(639) "Wamberal sits in the Central Coast's "Golden Triangle," an easy walk to Terrigal Beach and the café and restaurant strip that runs behind it — allow around five minutes on foot. Terrigal Golf Club welcomes non-members for a round and a meal just a short drive away. For the more adventurous, the Skillion Lookout walk delivers panoramic coastal views, while a well-known dive site — the wreck of the ex-HMAS Adelaide — rests offshore for certified divers.
Expect a stay built around the water: swimming, fishing, boating and surfing all within easy reach, with Terrigal's restaurant scene close enough for a pre-dinner stroll home."
