Overview

UNDER OFFER

On the doorstep of hip local cafes and an easy stroll to Beaumont Street's food and bar scene, this c1920 weatherboard sits in the thick of Islington's urban energy, and it's largely original and loaded with character features from its c1920s era. Timber floors, a hallway arch and a decorative fireplace bring instant charm, while the floorplan delivers two front bedrooms, a lounge stamped with charm, and a neat kitchen and bathroom that are serviceable for now while leaving scope to redesign. The backyard offers a rare blank slate ready for alfresco ideas or a landscape overhaul, and there are two off-street parking spaces – a rare find in this neighbourhood. Mixed-use zoning opens the door to commercial thinking or a full-scale future build, and with the neighbouring property also up for grabs, the canvas widens even further. For renovators chasing a city-fringe project, first buyers wanting to make their mark, or investors looking to buy in a high-growth location - this is a rare entry ticket into one of Newcastle's most in-demand pockets. - Original features including a fireplace, coal oven, dado boards and archway - Tidy kitchen with gas stove, function shower bathroom with separate wc - Two generous bedrooms each appointed with a built-in mirrored robe - North-to-rear yard offering scope for alfresco build or landscape design - Picket-fenced frontage with 2 off-street parking bays and classic verandah - Metres from cafés, boutiques and Hamilton Station, stroll to Islington Park - Cycle connections direct to Honeysuckle, harbour and surf beaches - Mixed-use zoning for creative rebuild or commercial use (STCA) - Option to expand vision by securing adjacent property as a pair - Off street parking for two vehicles. Council Rates $2,537 PA approx Water Rates $977 PA approx
