Last Listing description (August 2026)

OPEN HOME CANCELLED. For families, first-home buyers and upsizers searching for a renovated home. 29 Cobby Street offers something that goes well beyond four walls.It offers a place to put down roots, grow into and make your own.With a reserve directly across the road, there's an immediate sense of openness that's becoming harder to find. Fewer neighbours directly around you, additional parking options and simply more room to move.For a family, that's something you notice.More space when friends and family visit. Room for the kids to get outside. Less of that closed-in suburban feeling. And an outlook across the road that isn't simply another row of houses.Then there's the convenience of the location.CONNECTED TO EVERYTHING. CLOSE TO HOME.One of the real advantages of living in Shortland is how easily you're connected to Newcastle's major education, healthcare, employment and shopping precincts.You can catch the bus almost from your front door, making public transport an easy option for work, university, school or getting around Newcastle.For families, Our Lady of Victories Primary School in Shortland is nearby, with local parks and green spaces within walking distance. Whether it's an afternoon at the park, getting the kids to school or simply heading outside for some fresh air, everyday family life is close at hand.The University of Newcastle is approximately a 5-minute drive, making this an incredibly convenient position for university staff, students and families.Wallsend is also approximately 5 minutes away, putting shopping, supermarkets, cafs, services and everyday essentials within easy reach.For those working in healthcare, John Hunter Hospital is approximately 1012 minutes away, while the restaurants, beaches, entertainment and employment of Newcastle CBD are approximately 1520 minutes from home.You're close to the places you need to be, while still coming home to an established residential neighbourhood with a reserve directly opposite and neighbours the current owners speak incredibly highly of.And when you're buying a home, good neighbours and a genuine sense of community are things money can't renovate.THE HARD WORK HAS ALREADY BEEN DONE.When comparing properties, the purchase price is only the beginning.Let's say you purchase another property for $850,000.It has an original kitchen, two outdated bathrooms, older flooring, timber windows requiring attention, damaged cladding, piers requiring work, no solar and a list of improvements you already know you'll eventually want to make.Start adding it up.A new kitchen. Two bathrooms. Flooring. Painting inside and out. Electrical upgrades. Lighting and ceiling fans. Built-in wardrobes. Blinds. Solar. Decking and outdoor improvements. Structural work. Landscaping.Then add the labour and materials.Suddenly, does that $850,000 home really cost $850,000?NOW COMPARE IT WITH 29 COBBY STREET, SHORTLAND.Here, the extensive work has already been completed.The kitchen is done. Both bathrooms are done. The flooring, painting, electrical updates, built-in wardrobes, blinds, ceiling fans, lighting, solar, deck, landscaping and numerous improvements throughout the property are already there for you to enjoy.For first-home buyers, that can mean buying your first home without immediately facing a substantial renovation list.For families and upsizers, it can mean spending your weekends making memories instead of managing trades.And you don't have to simply take our word for it.A pest and building report has already been completed and is available for buyers to review, giving you the opportunity to understand more about the property before making your decision.Because when you're choosing where to raise a family, you're not simply buying a house.You're choosing the street they'll grow up in.The neighbours they'll know.The places they'll play.The home they'll come back to.
