Last Listing description (September 2026)
Set on level six of The Crossing, right where Newcastle's harbour and city meet, this stylish one-bedroom apartment is already earning its keep. Currently leased through an Airbnb management company until next year and returning approximately $70,000 per year, it's a ready-made investment in a location that works equally well for business travellers and weekend visitors. Step outside and you're footsteps from Honeysuckle's dining scene, Civic Square and sunset drinks at Crystalbrook Kingsley, with Newcastle's beaches close enough for a morning swim.
Inside, approximately 65sqm including the balcony delivers more space than you might expect. Warm timber floors, an exposed concrete ceiling and suspended track lighting bring a cool industrial edge to the open plan living area, anchored by a contemporary island kitchen. Floor-to-ceiling glass draws in plenty of natural light and today's impressive outlook towards Christ Church Cathedral, Nobbys and the harbour. A shower bathroom, separate laundry, secure car space and storage cage add all the practical extras.
