Charlestown 240 Charlestown Road
Wonderfully Versatile Family Home with Amazing Views and R3 Zoning
Accessed off Kendall Street with a wide frontage and R3 zoning allowing for a dual occupancy (STCA), this wonderfully light-filled home is a picture of modern-day comfort with an eye to the future. Previously extended out and up, the property has a versatile floorplan with open plan living, a choice of sunrooms, up to four-bedroom accommodation, and two office spaces that are ideal for those working or running a business from home. Retreat to the private bedroom upstairs where a delightful balcony offers point blank views to the Watagan Mountains. Here's to cocktails at sunset in this magical spot! Fenced and landscaped gardens offer plenty of room for kids and pets to play. There's an oversized double carport that could make way for a second dwelling should you wish to take advantage of the block's development potential. Convenience is king at this wonderfully connected address that's a 10-minute stroll to Charlestown Square, a two-minute drive to the city bypass and an easy 15-minute commute into Newcastle for work or play.
