Auction Location: On-site
Offered for only the second time, this classic late Federation - early Edwardian residence quietly tells its story the moment you arrive. Set within the Hill Heritage Conservation Area, one of Newcastle's oldest and most significant residential enclaves, the home has changed hands just twice and has been held and loved for more than 30 years - now ready for its next chapter. Recognised as an integral part of this historic streetscape, the home sits among intact terraces, villas and homes dating from the 19th through to the late 20th century.
Spanning two levels, much of the original character remains beautifully intact. Leadlight windows throughout, 10ft ceilings, dark timber joinery and a brick fireplace give the home its rich period backbone. Rooms are generously proportioned in the way only homes of this era manage. The entry level holds adjoining lounge and dining rooms, a delightfully retro kitchen, laundry and second w/c, while upstairs you'll find three bedrooms and a shower bathroom. The main bedroom is the hero, with oversized proportions and a bay window that looks across King Edward Park to the ocean beyond. The remaining bedrooms enjoy elevated city views over Newcastle. Externally, the home retains its original facade with a rare bonus being a single carport in this tightly held pocket.
Yes, it needs restoration and repair, but the bones are exceptional. With Newcastle City Council preserving the special character of The Hill through a Local Environmental Plan that protects subdivision patterns, existing buildings, sandstone walls, trees, parks, coastal vistas and public open space, this is a genuine opportunity to honour the home's period soul while shaping a thoughtful modern future
Life in The Hill strikes a rare balance between coastal calm and city energy. Newcastle Beach, heritage-listed Ocean Baths, the Bogey Hole, King Edward Park and Darby Street are all close enough to shape your everyday routine, and some of the city's most sought-after schools sit just a short stroll downhill.
