Wickham 55 Robert Street
Miner's Cottage Origins in an Inner-City Hotspot
With its in demand inner-city address and classic miner's cottage origins, this weatherboard 2-bedder is packed with potential. The home's gun-barrel design flaunts timber lined ceilings, pine floors and dado boards with a cosy lounge room at its heart, timber gas-equipped kitchen and a spacious full-size bathroom and laundry at the rear. Secure off-street parking for two cars is a surprising bonus. More than comfortable for you to move in or rent out, it's clear to see there is scope for a contemporary renovation to bring this home's interiors into the 21st Century. From this superb urban address, Newcastle CBD, the harbour and Honeysuckle will be your playground with lively restaurants, bars, walking and bike paths all on your doorstep as well as the light rail to the beach and trains for those needing to commute to the Central Coast and Sydney.
