Clearly Mad


Back at the beginning of 2007 whilst on a wedding anniversary weekend we had this crazy idea that we would like to have a holiday place here in the beautiful Port Stephens region of NSW.

We caught our eye on a lovely waterfront property that was for sale and had no idea how much it would cost. We were shocked to find that it was far more than our budget allowed.So the challange was on to find something that we could afford.

We spent quite a few weekends up here looking, some were lovely but weren"t offering what John was looking for 'A Project'.

We engaged the help of some very helpful estate agents , one in particular was not going to let this chase end.

Jason Brennan from L.J. Hooker Nelson Bay allowed us to view many places but after looking at loads of places in 'suburbia' I commented to Jason that living in suburbia here was going to be no different to living in suburbia in Sydney.We really needed a place close to the water.

His reply was "I have a place to show you but you must have an open mind"

and so......

The Humpy was born.


This place was VERY rundown but had the loveliest feel to it.
