Inspections by appointment only - Contact Agent
Like a warm embrace, it's going to be hard to resist this beautifully presented 1950's cottage that blends its mid-century persona with an incredibly inviting ambience on a low maintenance 336sqm corner block. What was once the three-bedroom home's front verandah is now two separate carpeted rooms that can be configured in several ways – a home office and additional bedroom, extra living space and toy room – whatever your family's needs are. Modern updates to the kitchen and bathroom allow you to move straight in, while VJ panelling, wall strapping, hip rails and timber floors add eye-catching charm. Considerable attention has been paid to the edible garden featuring raised vegetable beds, an olive tree, passionfruit vine and a chicken run. Softly elevated Fifth Street delivers a light and airy atmosphere to this property, while the location is a winner for families young and old. It's a 10-minute stroll to Elder Street's shops and cafes, and your choice of parkland at Lambton and Jesmond. John Hunter Hospital and the University of Newcastle are also close by and it's an easy commute into the city and beaches.
