The Terrace is undoubtedly one of Newcastle's most blue-ribbon addresses. Steeped in history and fronting King Edward Park with views out to the Pacific Ocean, the single-sided street of Victorian Italianate and Rustic Gothic houses were built in the 1880s for the city's wealthy.
Designed in the Victorian Italianate style by respected local architect of the time, James Henderson, number 20 sits on a double block of 607sqm, and with its wide 20m frontage and long driveway providing off-street parking for multiple vehicles, it makes a notable first impression.
Step inside to experience the spectacular original details that give this home authentic period character, from the ornate plaster ceilings and marble fireplaces, to the polished timber floors and the classic upper-level lacework verandah that's a perfect spot to take in beautiful sunrises.
Generous proportions flow throughout the entire home - its traditional layout featuring both formal and casual lounge and dining rooms on ground floor and four bedrooms and two bathrooms on a split-level upstairs. Two previous renovations have added a home office, a double garage with internal access, and an open plan kitchen, dining and family room with views across the park to the coast. A north facing terrace adjoining the office extends your dining and entertaining options outdoors where there is also a delightful garden for children and pets to play.
At its heart, this is a wonderful family home with a myriad of lifestyle attractions literally on your doorstep. From here, a surf at Newcastle Beach, a sunset walk along the beach or the Anzac Memorial walk, coffee in Darby or Hunter Street, or a dip in the Bogey Hole, are all simply effortless.
