About this property
Catos Escape Close to Rainforest and Scenic Lookouts
Discover this spacious, architecturally designed home, ideal for relaxed group stays and offering modern comfort with room to unwind. Spanning multiple levels, the layout balances time together with privacy, from light-filled living zones to a private deck set up for alfresco dining. With four ensuite bathrooms, a library-style study, a fully equipped kitchen, and year-round climate control, it’s a thoughtfully designed retreat just minutes from Wollongong’s Botanic Gardens and pristine beaches. Designed for group stays, the home blends generous space and contemporary interiors across a multi-level layout that encourages connection while offering privacy and room to unwind.
The lower level opens into a main living area arranged for easy conversation, with no TV to distract from time together. This flows seamlessly into an expansive kitchen and dining zone for shared meals and effortless entertaining. Stone benchtops, modern appliances, and a central island with stools invite people to gather, while a butler’s pantry adds extra storage, a Nespresso machine, and a washer for laundry needs. Outside, the sun-drenched deck is framed by lush greenery, offering an inviting spot for morning coffee, shared lunches, or winding down in the fresh air.
Bedroom accommodation spans both levels, with each bedroom featuring its own ensuite. The primary bedroom is located downstairs and offers a king bed, while upstairs there are two additional king bedrooms and one queen bedroom. All four ensuite bathrooms are sleek and well finished, featuring walk-in showers, complimentary toiletries, with one offering a deep bathtub for a relaxing soak.
Also upstairs, a secondary living area offers a relaxed setting for movie nights, with plush seating around a large TV and expansive windows that bring in natural light and elevated views. Nearby, the dedicated study feels like a quiet library, lined with full bookshelves and ideal for focused work or reading. Step onto the private balcony for fresh air, leafy treetop outlooks, and distant coastal views.
Split-system air conditioning and heating are installed in all living areas and bedrooms for year-round comfort. There is driveway parking for two cars, and free street parking. Please note the garage is not accessible to guests. During your stay, you and your group will have the entire house to yourselves. Please make yourselves at home!
Tucked within a quiet pocket at the foot of Mount Keira, this peaceful enclave feels a world away from the buzz yet remains wonderfully close to it all. Scenic trails and Mount Keira Summit Park are just moments away, offering sweeping coastal views and lush rainforest walks. Nearby, the Wollongong Botanic Garden and the University of Wollongong bring nature and culture together, while Keiraville’s cafés and shops add local charm and convenience. A short drive leads to Wollongong’s beaches and vibrant city centre, with Crown Street’s café and dining strip — including favourites like Lower East Café and Lee & Me — only minutes away. For day trips, family-friendly destinations such as Symbio Wildlife Park and Jamberoo Action Park are also within easy reach.
Due to local regulations, we can happily host you for up to 90 nights. Any bookings that exceed this duration will be cancelled by Vrbo.
