Not to be confused with Sydney's Silverwater. This is a small western shore lakefront community near Morisset. Genuine lake access and quiet residential streets at accessible prices.
About Lake Macquarie
Lake Mac is where Newcastle people move when they want space, water, and a slower clock. The vibe is family-friendly, boat-friendly, retirement-friendly.

Price trajectory
Too few sales here in the past year to publish a median. A price from a handful of sales says more about those houses than about the suburb.
