Just a barefoot 400m stroll from Redhead Beach, this original Beachcomber-style home is ready for its next chapter, and on a 689.2sqm block with ocean views and a prized north-facing backyard, the possibilities are exciting. Large expanses of glazing and a front verandah make the most of the coastal outlook, while the elevated single-level layout sits above the garage with three bedrooms tucked away from the open plan social spaces. Secondary access via Reay Lane adds further appeal.
There's plenty of scope to take the home's mid-century bones and give them a full renovation worthy of its beachside setting, potentially add an upper level to capitalise further on those ocean views, or start again taking inspiration from the luxury new builds transforming the surrounding streets (STCA). For those looking to maximise the site from day one, DA-approved plans by Shade Architects are already in place for a luxury tri-level duplex designed around the block, the views and its incredible proximity to the beach. Plans available on request.
And what a location. Redhead's long stretch of golden sand, popular surf breaks and 4WD beach access are practically on your doorstep, along with an off-leash section for the dog. When you're not at the beach, Lake Macquarie is around 10 minutes away at Belmont for boating, fishing and paddling, while the Fernleigh Track offers kilometres of walking and cycling. Charlestown Square is also around 10 minutes from home, and Newcastle's harbour, restaurants, bars and nightlife are an easy 20-minute drive away.
