Last Listing description (August 2025)

With generous proportions, layered living zones and a beautiful balance of comfort and modern finishes, this stylishly renovated family home offers a relaxed pace of living in one of Newcastle's most connected suburbs. Wrapped in greenery and set at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, it's designed for families who need room to spread out, entertain and retreat, without compromising on location or lifestyle. Enjoy weekends in the garden, cosy evenings by the fire, or mornings on the balcony with coffee in hand, this is a home that makes the everyday feel special.

Staged over two thoughtfully designed levels, the home offers space in all the right places. Upstairs, polished floorboards flow through a light-filled layout, where ducted air-conditioning keeps things comfortable year-round. A statement kitchen overlooks the backyard and connects seamlessly with a dining area and then a large living zone, where a combustion fireplace adds a layer of warmth and charm. Three bedrooms with built-ins and a designer bathroom round out the upper level. Downstairs is a brilliant surprise - ideal for parents, teens, guests or working from home, with two additional bedrooms, a sleek modern ensuite, a rumpus, and a separate study.
