Last Listing description (August 2025)

A coveted ground floor beach apartment in an iconic Art Deco building; this is where city vibes blend with surf and sand.

It is hard to imagine a better location on the entire East Coast; where else are you within 10 min of the CBD, 5 min of uber-chic cafes, restaurants and boutiques, and just a 350m stroll to the most island-like swimming spot?

This is where you wake up and run your surfboard down for a morning wave before a yoga class or a coffee overlooking the water. This is where you make friends with your neighbours and toast the sunset on the hill overlooking the ocean.

One of Newcastle's most desired beachside enclaves, this is a must-see for those looking for the perfect Bar Beach opportunity.
