6 Bedroom House in Picketts Valley
Summary:
Five bedrooms, a private guest house, a saltwater lap pool, and 2.5 acres of park-like gardens — just 5 minutes from Avoca Beach and Terrigal. Casa Queenie is the Central Coast's ultimate group estate, where grand proportions meet warm, considered luxury and every season feels like a celebration.
The guest house is only available for booking with groups of 11 or 12 guests.
The Space:
Casa Queenie is in a class of its own on the Central Coast. A grand two-level residence set on 2.5 acres of established park-like gardens, with a fully self-contained guest house, four bathrooms, a Miele chef's kitchen, and a dining table that seats 16. Formal and informal living zones flow to expansive alfresco terraces, the saltwater lap pool shimmers year-round, and wood fireplaces anchor the home in every season. This is where milestone moments happen.
What We Love
The Estate:
2.5 acres of established gardens — Japanese maples, flat child-friendly lawns, a play structure, and multiple terraces and outdoor sitting areas built for group gatherings. The kind of grounds you wander through with a morning coffee and never want to leave.
The Pool:
A saltwater lap pool open year-round, 24 hours a day — surrounded by gardens and terraces that make it the natural heart of every summer stay. Long lazy afternoons, early morning laps, and golden hour drinks poolside — the pool at Casa Queenie sets the rhythm of the whole holiday.
Location:
Just 5 minutes from both Avoca Beach and Terrigal — two of the Central Coast's most loved coastal destinations. The estate gives you complete privacy and seclusion while keeping everything you need within easy reach.
All Seasons Comfort:
Casa Queenie is as magical in winter as it is in summer. A wood fireplace, gas fireplace, ducted air conditioning, warm-tech underfloor heating, and a garden fire pit ensure the estate is warm, cosy, and utterly inviting no matter the month. Fireside winter evenings here are something guests talk about for years.
The Kitchen & Dining:
A deluxe Miele kitchen with a full butler's pantry — genuinely equipped for cooking for 12. The formal dining room seats 16 at a magnificent table, while alfresco dining on the terrace brings the outdoors in for long summer lunches. This is a kitchen and dining setup that makes hosting a group feel effortless.
Living Areas:
Formal and informal living zones give the group flexibility at every time of day. Whether it's a quiet morning in the informal sitting room or a celebration dinner in the grand formal dining space, Casa Queenie has a room for every mood and every moment.

The Location
Casa Queenie sits in a peaceful, private setting just 5 minutes from two of the Central Coast's finest beaches. Avoca Beach offers a relaxed village atmosphere, the beloved Avoca Beach Picturehouse, and a calm family-friendly surf beach. Terrigal delivers award-winning restaurants, the iconic Esplanade, and the Central Coast's most vibrant dining and café scene. Both are on your doorstep — and the estate itself means you may never want to leave.
Casa Queenie doesn't have an off-season — it simply changes character. Summer means pool days, alfresco lunches, and children disappearing into the gardens until dark. Autumn turns the Japanese maples golden, and the grounds go quiet in the best possible way. Winter is when the estate reveals its most intimate side — wood fires, underfloor heating, slow mornings in the grand kitchen, and evenings around the garden fire pit under clear winter skies. Spring brings the gardens back to life and the pool beckons again. Whatever the season, this is where the Central Coast's most unforgettable stays begin.
Guest Access:
You'll have exclusive use of the entire property — main residence, guest house, pool and grounds. Self check-in via smart lock means you can arrive on your own schedule.
The Neighborhood:
Picketts Valley is a small, peaceful semi‑rural suburb in the Central Coast region of New South Wales, located just a short drive from Terrigal and Avoca Beach. It has a quiet, country‑like feel with lots of greenery, open spaces, and a close‑knit community, making it ideal for those who enjoy a tranquil lifestyle while still being close to coastal amenities and beaches.
The area features larger blocks of land and a scenic landscape that blends gentle hills and natural vegetation, providing a countryside atmosphere that feels a world away from busier urban centres. Its proximity to outdoor attractions like bushland reserves, walking trails and nearby coastlines gives residents easy access to both rural and beachside experiences.
Despite its peaceful setting, Picketts Valley is not far from essential services, shopping and dining options in neighbouring suburbs like Terrigal and Erina. This balance of calm, scenic living with convenient access to local hubs makes it attractive for families and those seeking a quieter pace close to the coast.
