Description

Original Home with Rear Lane Access and Views to the Ocean
Offering much more than your average fixer-upper, this loved home of 60 years is packed with potential for a modern makeover enhanced by its rear lane access and south easterly views across the city as far as the ocean. An exceptionally comfortable three bedroom home with separate lounge and dining rooms and a sunroom, it's clear to see the value contemporary renovations will bring. Outside, use your near neighbours as inspiration and extend into the garden to capitalise on the views, or use the bones of the double garage facing the lane to create a granny flat or studio (STCA). The handy location is close enough to nip into the city in under 15 minutes and far enough away to enjoy a quiet and comfortable lifestyle with Waratah Shopping Village, a choice of schools and the University of Newcastle and Mater Hospital close by.
