Situated in a sought-after Whitebridge locale, this classic two-bedroom, one-bathroom house offers endless possibilities to refresh, renovate, or rebuild your dream home (STCA). Set on a generous north-facing 730m² parcel with beautiful bushland views, you’re just a hop, skip, and a jump from Dudley Beach, amazing nature walks, quality schools, and inviting village cafés.
This well-loved home features two generous bedrooms served by a bathroom with a shower, bath, and a handy separate toilet. A sunny living room leads into a formal dining room with access to a covered balcony, where you can take in sweeping views across the backyard and bushland surrounds — and even catch a glimpse of sparkling water! The character-filled kitchen is well-preserved, functional, and ready for your personal flair.
Outdoors, the huge backyard offers a sprawling lawn and oodles of space to play with. The sky’s the limit for what you can create, including extending the current home, adding in-law accommodation, or building anew (all STCA). A carport and large garage with workshop provide extra space for parking or storing tools and recreational equipment.
Right outside your front door, a thriving neighbourhood awaits. You're just 400m from the Fernleigh Track, where you can walk or cycle through bushland and explore further into the scenic Awabakal Nature Reserve. Stunning Dudley Beach is only a two-minute drive away for surfing and invigorating swims. Local Whitebridge cafés and shops are within walking distance if you fancy a coffee or brunch with friends. You’re also close to schools, sporting grounds, Charlestown Square, and enjoy an easy commute to both Lake Macquarie and Newcastle. Whether you’re a first-home buyer looking for a foothold on the property ladder or someone searching for their next project (STCA), this charming cottage offers plenty of potential in a prime lifestyle location.
