Last Listing description (July 2026)

Hidden within the heritage bones of the Eastside Apartments building, this fourth-floor residence is removed from the tempo below while remaining completely connected to it. The interiors are streamlined and simple - soft carpet, a restrained palette and natural light shifting through open-plan spaces. Adding weight, a communal rooftop terrace captures salt air, ocean views and the mood of the city from dawn to dusk.

The apartment's layout is pared-back and practical. An updated kitchen folds neatly into the floorplan - designed for easy meal prep, and an upgraded laundry with linen closet keeps the footprint functional. Two generous bedrooms sit quietly away from the spacious open plan living and dining zone, each fitted with built-in storage, and the two-way bathroom creates a subtle ensuite effect for the main, complete with modern vanity. Secure entry and direct lift access round out a home that favours low-maintenance living without abandoning atmosphere.

Outside, Newcastle unfolds in layers. Early mornings might begin with a swim at Newcastle Beach or coffee by the harbour before the city fully wakes. King Edward Park is nearby, ready for spontaneous picnics under towering Norfolk pines, and the foreshore's restaurants, bars and light rail shape a sought-after urban lifestyle by the coast.

- Generously-scaled inner-city apartment within a charming heritage building
- Large open plan living and dining zone with quality carpet underfoot
- Stylish kitchen featuring a modern oven, good prep area and breakfast bar
- Two robed bedrooms both nicely off-set to social areas for restful nights
- Central shower bathroom with storage and direct access to main bedroom
- A winner for lifestyle lovers stroll to the ocean baths, Nobby's, the beach
- Wander to the harbour, local bars, cafes, restaurants and bespoke retail
- Jump on the light rails to the West End for Civic Theatre and the University
