Overview

Position, Potential & Park Views

For more than 50 years, this home has been at the centre of one family's story. Looking out across Townson Oval with uninterrupted views and a prized northeasterly aspect, it's easy to understand why. The front verandah has long been the place to enjoy the sea breeze, watch weekend cricket and footy unfold across the oval, and take in an outlook that changes with the seasons. Just a 10-minute stroll from both Merewether Beach and The Junction, it's a location that continues to reward every generation. A true time capsule of 1970s style, the dual-level home now presents an exciting opportunity for a new family to create their own memories. Comfortable as is, it's ready for a thoughtful renovation that will transform it into a contemporary beachside home for many more decades to come. Fresh paint, new flooring and updates to the original kitchen and both bathrooms will immediately enhance the home while preserving its generous proportions and enviable position. Set on a substantial 603.8sqm block with a wide 15.24m frontage and two driveways, the possibilities extend well beyond renovation. Build a brand-new home designed to make the most of the exceptional outlook or explore the site's potential for a duplex or dual occupancy development (STCA). Run barefoot to Merewether or Dixon Park Beach for a morning swim, meet friends at The Mary Ellen, The Prince or Souths Leagues Club, and enjoy the cafés, boutiques, supermarkets and sought-after schools that have made The Junction one of Newcastle's most desirable neighbourhoods. Opportunities to secure a home in a position like this, with views that can never be built out and a location that's loved by generations of local families, are few and far between. - Brick and tile dual level home, first time offered since built - Block dimensions 15.24m X 39.62m, zoned R2 - Light filled lounge room with a/c opens to verandah with park views - Dining room adjoins original electric-equipped kitchen - All three bedrooms fitted with built-in robes, served by 3-way bathroom - Versatile lower level rumpus plus storage, laundry, second bathroom - 9.1m long garage, second driveway for extra vehicles - The Junction Public School – 600m, Lingard Hospital – 350m, Honeysuckle – 2.7km
