The Property

A rare kind of escape

Some properties ask you to compromise. Melody Park does not. Set on 4.57 sundrenched acres in Lisarow — neighbouring the prestigious enclaves of Matcham and Holgate, among the Central Coast's most coveted rural addresses — this is a completely reimagined estate designed by renowned interior studio Novari Collective that delivers everything without asking you to choose between any of it. The city. The coast. The horses. The house.

Dual street access from both The Ridgeway and Macdonalds Lane adds a rare and practical utility that buyers of acreage will immediately appreciate.

Novari Collective's brief was exceptional quality, warmth and elegance — a natural palette of engineered timbers, stone, and tactile fabric that feels as though it grew from the land itself. Separate from the main residence, the privately converted barn offers a fully enclosed high-bay space reimagined as a studio, workshop, or creative retreat — a level of versatility and separation rarely found at this price point. What remains for the next owner is the simplest of propositions: arrive, and begin.

"One hour from the city. Fifteen minutes from the coast."

The House

Refined country living,
fully realised

There are renovated homes, and then there are homes that have been genuinely considered — from the material palette to the way late afternoon light falls through the living room. The main residence at Melody Park was completely reimagined by Novari Collective, one of Australia's respected interior design studios. Their brief: exceptional quality, warmth and elegance, with a natural palette of engineered timbers, stone, and textured fabrics that feel both considered and deeply comfortable.

Cathedral-style ceilings crown the open-plan kitchen and dining space, where a grand wrought-iron and ash-wood chandelier presides above a kitchen built for both daily ease and effortless entertaining. An outdoor kitchen extends the sequence seamlessly to the alfresco. The Escea log fireplace anchors the lounge — elegant yet relaxed. Double-glazed windows throughout ensure a quiet, private world pulled well back from the road.

The Barn Conversion

A separate life.
Or a second income.

At the Macdonalds Lane entrance to Melody Park — the property's second street frontage, distinct and separate from The Ridgeway — stands its most characterful space: a 13.9 × 9.5 metre high-bay barn, thoughtfully converted into a self-contained three-bedroom studio with its own full fit-out. It arrived with bones that cannot be replicated from scratch — volume, raw structure, and the architectural romance of genuine agricultural character.

What it offers is entirely up to you. For the investor, a short-stay rental or Airbnb on an already-desirable coastal acreage — a consistent income stream requiring little management. For the extended family, genuine independence: a private dwelling fully separate from the main home, with its own entrance and address. For the creative, a studio, an atelier, or the most dramatic retreat anyone could reach on a Friday afternoon. Alternatively, revert it to the ultimate warehouse, workshop, or vehicle storage — the 13.9 metre width makes anything possible.

"Dual living, income stream, multigenerational retreat, or blank canvas — the barn earns its keep any way you choose to use it."

Character you can't build.

Three bedrooms, full fit-out, its own address — and the kind of spatial drama only genuine agricultural bones provide.

Lifestyle & Horse Facilities

The land you've
been waiting for

4.57 fully cleared and grazable acres, set up for horses from the moment you arrive. This is not a paddock and a promise — it is a proper equestrian property: stables, a dedicated arena, fully fenced paddocks with post and rail throughout, and a continual water supply backed by both bore and extensive tank storage. Three-phase power on site.

And when the horses are settled and the afternoon stretches long, there is the pool — generous, fenced, with a poolhouse, kitchenette and bathroom. There is the tennis court. There is the particular stillness of an acreage evening in the Central Coast hinterland, with the sound of the surf no more than twenty minutes away. This is the life you designed in your head. Melody Park simply built it for you.

The Region

One hour from Sydney.
Fifteen minutes
from the coast.

Lisarow sits within one of the Central Coast's most quietly prestigious rural corridors, neighbouring Matcham and Holgate — enclaves known to discerning buyers as the region's benchmark addresses for acreage and horse properties, where estates rarely trade publicly and values reflect the fact. Sydney's CBD is barely an hour by car or direct train from Lisarow Station; Terrigal, Avoca Beach, and the wider coast are around 15 minutes in the other direction. The geographic position simply cannot be replicated.

The Central Coast has long been one of NSW's most quietly desirable regions, and this Matcham–Holgate–Lisarow corridor its most guarded corner — acreage held by families for generations and rarely offered publicly. A property of Melody Park's calibre, at this level of finish, in this location, is the exception. For the right buyer, the timing of this listing is fortuitous.
