Built for Wickham's first mayor, this grand double-storey residence has a fascinating history and a stately street presence that's hard to miss. Framed by beautiful established trees, its elegant facade, traditional windows and welcoming front verandah celebrate the home's heritage, while inside, thoughtful updates have created a stylish and wonderfully comfortable place for modern family living. With four large bedrooms or the option for two separate living areas, two beautifully renovated bathrooms and a fabulous north-facing backyard, it's a home that offers plenty of space to relax, entertain and enjoy life in one of Newcastle's most connected inner-city neighbourhoods.
Step inside and you'll find warm timber floors, fresh white interiors and generously proportioned rooms that give the home a lovely sense of space. Two separate living areas offer flexibility for families, with the option of a fourth bedroom, a TV room for the kids or somewhere to work from home. At the rear, the dining room connects to a beautifully appointed kitchen, where shaker-style cabinetry, stone benchtops, a farmhouse sink, gas cooking and striking patterned floor tiles bring plenty of personality. Sliding doors open directly onto the expansive timber deck, where a covered entertaining area with ceiling fans and plenty of built-in storage makes outdoor living a pleasure. There's room for a dining table in the sunshine, a lounge setting under cover and a lovely stretch of north-facing lawn framed by established greenery. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms provide peaceful retreats, with built-in robes and ducted air-conditioning adding everyday comfort. The recently renovated main bathroom is a real standout, with beautiful marble-look tiles, a timber vanity with twin basins, brushed brass fittings and a luxurious double shower. A second stylish bathroom downstairs makes family living and entertaining all the more convenient.
Living in Wickham means having Newcastle's inner city on your doorstep, with a wonderful sense of connection and convenience. You're just a 10-minute stroll from Beaumont Street's shopping and dining, leafy Islington Park and the shared pathway that winds along the harbour foreshore through Honeysuckle to Nobbys Beach. Local favourites including The Flotilla, Sticky Rice and One Tribe Health & Fitness are close by, while Newcastle Interchange makes commuting or heading further afield easy. It's a fabulous location where you can leave the car at home and make the most of everything this vibrant neighbourhood has to offer.
