Overview

Classic Cottage Charm, Contemporary Comfort

Behind its charming weatherboard facade, this beautifully presented Carrington cottage brings together original character, considered updates and an easygoing lifestyle in one of Newcastle's most loved harbourside communities. Timber floors, high ceilings and an original brick fireplace speak to the home's heritage, while a fresh neutral palette and modern finishes create a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere throughout. Two well proportioned bedrooms sit at the front of the home, including a main bedroom with built in wardrobe. The central living and dining area flows through to an updated galley-style kitchen with gas cooking, while a renovated bathroom incorporates the laundry for everyday convenience. Outdoors, a generous covered alfresco area extends the living space, opening to a private, fully fenced backyard with level lawn and plenty of room to entertain, unwind or simply enjoy the afternoon sun. A recently installed new roof adds further peace of mind, while air conditioning and a gas bayonet provide practical options for year round comfort. Just moments from Carrington's popular cafes, local pubs, neighbourhood shops and waterfront parklands, the address offers a wonderful sense of community with Newcastle's city centre and beaches only a short drive away. A home that feels immediately inviting, with all the charm of its past and the comforts of today.
