A rare double block in harbourside Carrington, this 309sqm property spans two titles and presents a compelling choice: enjoy the classic three-bedroom home as it stands, renovate and extend, or explore an exciting architectural vision already approved for the site. Positioned in one of Carrington's sought-after wide streets, just 350m from the water's edge, footsteps from the local school and a little further to the great local shopping and café strip and popular corner pubs and a 15 minute bike ride to Nobbys Beach.
The existing single-level home is immediately comfortable, with three bedrooms, separate living and dining rooms, a functional kitchen, and combined bathroom/laundry. Outdoors, a covered entertaining area is joined by abundant off-street parking and a freestanding 3.6m x 6m garage.
For those ready to start again, a DA-approved design by award-winning Newcastle architectural practice Studio Dot shows just what could be achieved here. The thoughtfully considered three-bedroom residence makes the most of the northern orientation, placing living spaces, garden and outdoor areas to capture natural light and strengthen the connection between indoors and out. Passive design principles are incorporated throughout, while a detached studio adds further flexibility. With the architectural vision already through the DA process, much of the groundwork has been done, giving buyers an inspiring starting point from which to pursue their own plans for the property.
Stroll to cafés, pubs and the village shops, wander down to the foreshore or follow the waterside paths towards Honeysuckle and the harbour. Carrington is loved for its community feel and city-fringe convenience, making this rare double block an opportunity with plenty of ways to play it.
