A man has died after a car crashed into a home at Largs on Sunday.
Police said a Toyota Landcruiser was travelling north on High Street when it left the roadway and hit the front of a home at the intersection of Morpeth Street at about 3pm on Sunday.
The home sustained structural damage and the occupant, an 74-year-old man, who had been asleep in a front bedroom was taken to John Hunter Hospital in a critical condition, where he died on Monday.
Officers from Port-Stephens Hunter Police District attended along with NSW Ambulance paramedics.
Initial inquiries suggest the 69-year-old driver suffered a medical episode prior to the collision.
He was revived and taken to John Hunter Hospital where he remained in a critical condition on Monday.
A female inside the house was also medically assessed and escaped serious harm, Fire and Rescue NSW said.
An exclusion zone was established around the site, pending a further safety inspection.
A crime scene was also established, and the Toyota has been seized for forensic examination.
As inquiries continue, police are appealing for any witnesses or anyone who may have dash cam vision to contact Maitland Police Station or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
