Set within the landmark 1927 AMP Chambers, a locally heritage-listed Inter-War commercial building designed by prominent architects Wright & Apperly, this unique residence comes with almost a century of Newcastle history. Crowning the top floor, the building's original caretaker's apartment has been transformed into a character-filled two-bedroom home with something you simply don't expect to find in the middle of the CBD. An enormous private rooftop terrace.
With approximately 186sqm of indoor/outdoor living, including an extraordinary 95sqm rooftop terrace, the apartment feels wonderfully removed from the city below. High 10ft ceilings add to the sense of space, while new south-facing sash windows line the living, dining and both bedrooms, drawing in natural light and capturing elevated views towards King Edward Park and The Obelisk. At the opposite side, enormous French doors swing open to the north-facing rooftop terrace, creating a fantastic connection between indoors and out.
And what a terrace it is. Newly updated with maintenance-free decking, there's an incredible amount of space to dine, entertain or simply kick back with a drink while taking in views across the working harbour towards Nobbys and Port Stephens. With its sunny northerly aspect, elevation and sheer scale, it has the feel of a rooftop bar in a great international city, except this one is entirely yours.
Hunter Street's mix of heritage architecture, restaurants, cafés and shopping surrounds you, with the East End precinct just moments away. Stroll to the harbour foreshore and Honeysuckle, or head in the other direction to Nobbys and Newcastle Beach and the Ocean Baths.
