Overview

Put simply, original charm, modern updates, super-central location

Deeply loved and held by the same family that built the home over 70 years ago, this is a property that's been genuinely cared for and updated where it counts, so you can move straight in and start making your own treasured memories here. Character sits comfortably alongside the updates. Ornate cornices, timber floors and picture rails bring a sense of history, while French doors off the main bedroom open to a sunny front verandah. The layout is straightforward and works well, with three spacious bedrooms, a central lounge, and a rear extension that opens into relaxed dining and a timber-topped kitchen. Set on 446sqm, there's a single garage, extra driveway parking, and a backyard with plenty of room for kids and pets to play. In addition, the laundry is absolutely huge, and with an adjoining w/c gives you options to create a second bathroom or fourth bedroom depending on your needs. You've got Waratah Village 750m away for the everyday stuff, the Mater Hospital precinct close by, and easy access to buses when you don't feel like driving. Head east and you're in the CBD in minutes for work, dining or a night out, or the beach for a swim, surf or coastal walk. It's a spot that keeps life simple during the week and opens up your options on the weekend. • Weatherboard and tile home on a low maintenance 446sqm block • Electric cooking appliances • Three spacious bedrooms with ceiling fans, one with air conditioning, two with built in wardrobes, main bedroom opens to the verandah • Bathroom with frameless glass shower, plus a convenient second WC in the large laundry • Estimated rental income per week $750 to $780 • Close to local schools: Waratah Public 500m, Callaghan College 1.5km, St Philip's Christian College 600m, Corpus Christi 1km, University of Newcastle 3.8km • Newcastle CBD 5.5km, M1 and Hunter Expressway 12km Disclaimer: All information provided by Wilton Lemke Stewart in the marketing of a property for sale or lease has been sourced from various third-party outlets that we deem reliable.
