141 Crebert Street

Mayfield NSW 2304

Forming an integral part of Newcastle's rich heritage and part of a row of houses built in 1888 for wealthy families of Mayfield, 141 Crebert Street was once the home of the respected Mr. Chinchen, a surveyor who gave his name to a street in Islington. Comprehensively restored over the last five years, this Victorian property's captivating combination of exquisite period splendour and relaxed contemporary comfort offers wide appeal for families through to busy executives. It's situated within a north facing 627sqm landholding with two street frontages minutes from Mayfield's shopping and amenities.

Beyond the classic rendered masonry faade and original cedar front door; Kauri pine floorboards, an arched hallway, soaring 13ft ornate ceilings and working fireplaces celebrate the home's Victorian heritage; while solar electricity, security fly-screens, a new kitchen and two new bathrooms meet the demands of modern living. A central hallway with a classic layout reveals a grand lounge and dining room with magnificent bi-fold French doors that separate the spaces or open up into one large area for entertaining. There are three large bedrooms and a family bathroom in the original part of the home whilst an extension houses a recycled eat-in timber kitchen, family living area, fourth bedroom and second bathroom. A single garage and additional parking is accessed via Hanbury Street while a picket fence and an abundance of native plants and fruit trees frame the large front garden.

This is an exciting real estate opportunity into this high growth area with the convenience of being less than five minutes from the University of Newcastle and Mater Hospital. From here it is no more than 15 minutes drive to Newcastle CBD and iconic beaches.
