74 Parry Street, Cooks Hill, NSW 2300

Vacant land in Cooks Hill is hard enough to come by, but a cleared block this close to Darby Street, the Newcastle Harbour and Bar Beach is an exceptionally rare find. Measuring 147.6sqm with a 4.8m frontage and the added advantage of adjoining laneway access, this compact parcel presents an exciting opportunity to get creative and build something completely your own in one of Newcastle's most sought-after suburbs.

The block's modest footprint calls for clever architecture, and some of that thinking has already been done. Concept plans prepared by Chris Tucker of Herd Architects explore both two and three-storey, three-bedroom designs, each incorporating coveted off-street parking and demonstrating just how much can be achieved with smart use of space. Whether you take inspiration from these concepts or start with a fresh vision, the opportunity is there to create a contemporary inner-city home that makes every square metre work hard, subject to Newcastle City Council approval.

Darby Street's cafés, restaurants, bars and boutiques are just 350m away, while harbourside Honeysuckle is a little over 1km from the block and Bar Beach is approximately 1.4km away. Civic Park, the cultural precinct, everyday shopping and the city centre are all within strolling distance too. Leave the car at home and walk to coffee, dinner, work, the harbour or beach, this is Cooks Hill living in its purest form, with the rare bonus of starting from a completely blank canvas.
