Set on the fourth floor of Y Apartments, the former Newcastle YMCA, this is one of those homes where the sense of space hits you straight away. The 9ft square-set ceilings give it real volume, something newer builds often miss, while three robed bedrooms are tucked into their own private wing, including a main with ensuite, alongside the family bathroom.
Holding a prized northwest corner position, the outlook is a constant drawcard. Watch the Stockton ferry glide across the harbour and settle in for sunsets that never really get old. Three awning windows frame the water perfectly from inside, best enjoyed from the kitchen island while you cook. Open-plan living spills out through two sets of bi-fold doors to the alfresco terrace, complete with motorised blinds so you can dial up or soften the sun as needed. Across the road, the rooftop garden at East End Village's Perkins & King building brings in a leafy, green backdrop, while ducted a/c keeps everything comfortable year-round.
You've got two side-by-side car spaces (one with over-bonnet storage), though you'll likely leave the car parked more often than not. Woolworths Metro is just across the road, with Oh My Papa! and QT close by for an easy dinner or drink. From there, it's an easy wander to the harbour foreshore, Honeysuckle, Nobbys Beach, or head east and you'll be at Newcastle Beach in under a kilometre. King Edward Park is up the hill, Tower Cinemas is a five-minute stroll, and the light rail at Crown Street links you straight to the Interchange for a trip to Sydney.
