Overview

Inner city living with two car spaces, footsteps to Darby Street

Just a laneway stroll from Darby Street's cafés, shops and nighttime dining scene, this three-bedroom home delivers inner-city living with space, light, and rare practicality. Rear lane access adds a second car space, while the tri-level layout keeps life nicely ordered: internal garage and wide entry hall on arrival, open-plan living and a handy second bathroom on the mid-level, and quiet sleeping quarters tucked upstairs. Two bedrooms spill onto a balcony with an outlook over Railway Street, while the main enjoys a walk-in robe and direct ensuite access to the bathroom. Timber floors ground the living zone, anchored by a timber-topped kitchen and lifted by a dramatic void that pulls daylight deep inside via well-placed skylights. Out back, a paved courtyard handles relaxed entertaining, stepping up to that coveted inner-city bonus of off-street parking. Step outside and let the city set the pace. Coffee runs, long brunches, and impromptu dinners are all part of the lifestyle, with Darby Street's favourites just moments away. Civic Park and the Art Gallery sit close by for a green escape or a culture hit, while Honeysuckle, Bar Beach, and Newcastle's nightlife are an easy wander when the mood strikes. No planning, no parking, just a genuinely walkable lifestyle that makes city living feel effortless. - Low maintenance block with rear lane access into second parking spot/courtyard - Ducted a/c keeps things comfortable - Open plan living with timber floors and gas-equipped kitchen with dishwasher - Two of the three carpeted bedrooms are fitted with robes, main with walk-in robe - Full size main bathroom with bath and shower, dual access from main bedroom - Laundry with second shower and w/c on main living level - Large internally accessed single garage with storage and 4m high ceiling - 550m to Harris Farm Markets and Cooks Hill Medical Centre; 1.4km to Bar Beach, 1.5km to Marketown Shopping Centre, 800m to Newcastle East Primary School, 1.1km to Newcastle Grammar School
