Last Listing description (March 2026)
Positioned on the fourth floor of the tightly held Menkens building, this north-facing apartment soaks up natural light and frames dynamic harbour views across Queens Wharf, Nobby's Beach and Stockton. By day, ferries scoot back and forth, and by night, the city lights up the water.
The layout strikes a smart balance between connection and retreat. A generous open plan living and dining zone stretches toward the balcony, creating a natural gathering space that spills outdoors for morning coffee or sunset drinks. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms are set away from the social hub, giving everyone their own quiet corner when the day winds down. Designed for comfort and practicality, the apartment features ducted air conditioning for year-round comfort, two side-by-side car spaces, and a separate storage room.
Originally designed circa 1899 by Frederick Menkens for R Hall and Sons, later home to Rundles Tailoring, the building was thoughtfully converted into apartments in 1998. Today, residents enjoy a heated lap pool, sauna and gym, along with a welcoming, close-knit community.
Step outside and you're in the thick of it. Coffee, long lunches, beach swims and harbour walks are all within easy reach, with the tram at your door to take you through the city to Newcastle West and the Interchange. Come New Year's Eve, you won't need to fight the crowds … the fireworks show up for you.
