City views, a beautiful new renovation and a walk-everywhere address put this versatile five bedroom home right in the sweet spot of The Hill. Tucked between Church and Tyrrell Streets, it captures a superb outlook across Town Hall and the iconic Roundhouse, stretching south towards Merewether and becoming even more impressive as the city lights come on at night.
Inside, the renovation feels fresh and contemporary, with warm timber floors, a contemporary kitchen and four beautifully appointed bathrooms, some with underfloor heating. And when you can stroll to Newcastle Art Gallery, Civic Park and Darby Street's cafés, restaurants and boutiques, then easily reach the harbour, East End and Newcastle Beach, the lifestyle is every bit as good as the view.
The layout unfolds over three levels and offers far more versatility than its traditional street presence suggests. The main living level brings two bedrooms and a bathroom at the front, before opening into a bright living and dining area and smart island kitchen. Wide sliders draw everything onto the large covered balcony, creating an alfresco extension of the living space with those city views front and centre. Upstairs, the main bedroom occupies its own private level with ensuite and extensive built-in storage.
There's also a separately accessed, self-contained studio with its own living/sleeping space, kitchenette and bathroom, currently earning more than $30,000 per annum through Airbnb. The remainder of the lower level forms part of the main home, with a fourth bedroom, bathroom, study and laundry, although this space also offers potential for guest accommodation, older children, extended family or further income.
Outside, the garden feels wonderfully removed from the city despite being right in the middle of it, with lawn, established greenery and a relaxed entertaining area. It's here, and throughout the home, that subtle reminders of its history come into view. Original fireplaces and exposed sandstone remain, while convict-made bricks have been incorporated into the balcony walls and garden arbour, adding character alongside the fresh contemporary renovation.
