Behind its crisp traditional façade, this classic Islington home has been completely reimagined, pairing the character of its past with a beautifully resolved contemporary renovation. Three-metre ceilings, rich timber floors and original character bringing warmth and history to the interior, while ducted air conditioning, modern lighting and beautifully appointed wet areas deliver today's comforts. Thoughtfully considered with input from an architect, the renovation balances timeless character with refined contemporary finishes.
The three-bedroom layout includes a main bedroom with ensuite, a generous central living room and a superb open-plan kitchen and dining zone at the rear. Fixed skylights draw natural light into the kitchen and dining areas, while smart solar-powered skylights brighten both bathrooms. The kitchen is a standout, featuring bespoke custom joinery, luxurious Ariana Gold marble benchtops, a generous island and a premium Fisher & Paykel appliance suite, including a 900mm freestanding oven and integrated dishwasher. The same attention to detail continues throughout both bathrooms and the full-size laundry, with stone benchtops, custom cabinetry and elegant aged-brass fittings creating a cohesive, sophisticated finish. Wide glass doors connect the kitchen and dining zone to a covered blackbutt entertaining deck and landscaped garden beyond, creating an inviting extension of the living space. Prized off-street parking adds another layer of convenience in this tightly held inner-city pocket.
Just 650m from Islington Park, you can jump on the cycleway and ride through the harbour, Honeysuckle and all the way to Nobbys. Wander to the Maryville Tavern for a bistro meal or catch up with friends over a drink, or head to Beaumont Street where cafés, pubs and restaurants line the strip. Add vintage stores, artisan retailers, local breweries and almost instant access to Newcastle Interchange, where a light rail trip can have you at the beach in minutes, and it's easy to see why Islington remains one of Newcastle's most sought-after inner-city suburbs.
