What do Rathmines homes near the old air base need?
Europeans settled here around 1840 and named the place after Rathmines in Ireland; orchards, vineyards and cattle came first, and the school opened in 1941. The artist William Dobell was at one time responsible for camouflaging the base. Styles Point park now holds Lake Macquarie's first disc golf course.
Separate houses were 92.6% of the suburb's occupied dwellings in 2021, and attached townhouses or semi-detached homes 7.0%. Tiled roofs take a soft wash, and concrete paths and driveways are pressure washed at a strength each surface can bear.
