Positioned on the north-west corner of the landmark Menkens building, this generous fifth-floor apartment offers the rare chance to create a truly bespoke city residence. Beautifully maintained and immediately comfortable, its original interiors provide the perfect canvas for a contemporary transformation, allowing you to capitalise on the apartment's impressive proportions, incredible natural light and unforgettable harbour outlook.
From the corner balcony, the ever-changing panorama becomes part of everyday life, with views stretching across Newcastle Harbour to Stockton, over Nobbys Headland and beyond to Mount Tomaree. Watch the ferry glide across the harbour, ships arrive in port and the city come alive from dawn until dusk.
The granite kitchen and adjoining meals area sit at the heart of the home, while a flexible multipurpose room is ideal as a home office, library or second living space. The main bedroom, currently configured as a study, features its own balcony and full ensuite, with two further bedrooms sharing a second bathroom. Two side-by-side secure car spaces and a large lockable storeroom complete the package.
Designed by renowned architect Frederick Menkens around 1899 for R. Hall & Sons and later home to Rundles Tailoring, this beautifully restored heritage building was thoughtfully converted into apartments in 1998. Residents enjoy exclusive access to a heated lap pool, gym, sauna and the warm sense of community that makes this building so highly regarded.
Outside, Newcastle's vibrant East End Village becomes your neighbourhood. Start the day with coffee from your favourite café, stroll to the harbour foreshore, swim at Nobbys or Newcastle Beach, enjoy dinner at one of the city's acclaimed restaurants, or jump on the light rail virtually at your doorstep for effortless access to Honeysuckle, Newcastle West and the Interchange. And on New Year's Eve, the harbour fireworks are yours to enjoy from the comfort of home.
