Nelson Bay is set for significant growth as the primary hub of Port Stephens, recently crowned Wotif Australia's Town of the Year 2025. Conveniently located just one hour north of Newcastle, two hours north of Sydney, and only 30 minutes from the newly upgraded and soon-to-be-operational Newcastle (Port Stephens) International Airport, the Bay is rapidly emerging as a hotspot for lifestyle, tourism and investment.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to secure a strategic foothold in one of New South Wales' most coveted coastal destinations.
