Last Listing description (June 2026)

Perched high above the coastline in blue-ribbon Hickson Street, this remarkable residence occupies one of Newcastle's most commanding positions. Staged across three luxurious levels and designed to embrace its breathtaking surroundings, it offers a living experience few homes can rival.

From sunrise over the Pacific to spectacular sunsets across the Hunter Valley, the views are simply mesmerising. Watch the coastline unfold from Merewether Beach to Susan Gilmore Beach, follow the ocean north toward Mount Tomaree, take in the glittering city skyline all the way to Barrington Tops. From migrating whales to dramatic storms, the ever-changing outlook provides a captivating backdrop to everyday life.
Crowning the home is a private parents' retreat. Wake each morning to uninterrupted ocean views. A generous walk-in robe and beautifully appointed ensuite with freestanding bath complete this indulgent sanctuary.

Bi-fold doors open on both sides, connecting to the ocean-facing entertaining deck and a resort-style heated pool and spa sanctuary complete with a barbecue pavilion and built-in daybed.

Anchoring the living zone is a magnificent island kitchen wrapped in imported Italian Carrara marble. Appointed with a 1200mm Smeg range, butler's pantry, wine fridge and two dishwashers. Also on this level are a custom-fitted home office, two generous bedrooms, including one with its own ensuite, and a stylish family bathroom.
Downstairs offers two additional bedrooms, a fourth bathroom, kitchenette, two separate living areas and extensive storage. For wine enthusiasts, a dedicated tasting room with custom table and four Liebherr wine fridges creates the ultimate space to showcase a prized collection.
