Blackalls Park 17 Blackall Avenue
A Unique Art Deco Era Treasure on the Shores of Lake Macquarie
There are few homes in Blackalls Park that can rival this Art Deco era treasure for its prime waterfront reserve position, unique character and sense of history. Offered for the first time in almost 100 years, it promises an idyllic lakeside lifestyle with a boat house & slipway (leased from Crown Land), with direct access to the calm waters of Fennell Bay.
The comfortable single level floorplan includes grand formal lounge and dining rooms and four bedrooms. An enormous brick fireplace, 12ft ceilings, original pine floors, bespoke glass display cabinets and ornate timber work are beautiful examples of the home's history, while a vintage kitchen and three retro bathrooms pay homage to a 1950's renovation.
Cocooned in gorgeous gardens blooming with 80year old azaleas, there's no doubt this home will capture your heart with scope for a full renovation to bring it into line with today's lifestyle expectations.
