Architect-designed, craftsman-built, and thoughtfully upgraded over time, this family home hits that special mix of generous space, beautiful finishes, and a backyard that feels like you’ve checked into your own private resort. Add in a pair of private offices, and working from home becomes a calm, interruption-free setup for both of you.

Behind the electric gate and in front of the double garage, there’s space for extra parking or a makeshift half-court where the kids can burn off energy shooting hoops. Step inside and the Blackbutt floors lead you down a long hallway past four robed bedrooms, the main with his-and-hers walk-in robes and ensuite, an upgraded family bathroom, a powder room, and a large media room, before the home opens right up. The main living area is all about warmth and connection. A winter fire anchors the space, while the island kitchen keeps you in the centre of the action, complete with a 900mm gas stove and integrated dishwasher, and a built-in banquette that doubles as the kind of daybed everyone ends up fighting over. Off to the side, a third living zone gives you freedom to set up a rumpus, playroom or more formal lounge depending on how life evolves.

Both rear living zones spill onto the covered deck where the whole backyard takes on a true resort feel. Elevated above the gardens and wrapped in palms and bamboo, it’s the kind of space where you instantly slow down. Spend your mornings swimming laps in the self-cleaning heated pool, claim the cabana for long lazy afternoons with a book, or pour sunset drinks on the deck while the kids run across the lawn. It’s a backyard that turns every weekend into a mini holiday.

Back inside, the loft crowns the home offering a flexible multi-purpose level currently divided into two spaces with sound-proof doors. One half has custom desks ready for an office, making it a dream setup for anyone juggling remote work or creative projects.

A few of the many features you’ll pick up on during a visit:

 Deck with built-in BBQ, wine fridge and heat lamps
 Remote-operated Velux skylights that flood the kitchen and loft with natural light
 Full CCTV, cameras, alarm system and video doorbell
 Huge under-deck storage zone
 Ducted a/c throughout
 Hot and cold beach shower in the front yard
 Plantation shutters

Set in an exclusive pocket of Brooks Street, the lifestyle wraps it all up. Bar Beach is about 650m from your front door, and you’re moments from the cafés, boutiques and restaurants of Darby Street and The Junction. Groceries are a quick walk to Harris Farm, surf sessions slot easily into your morning routine, and Genesis Gym is close enough to make the habit stick. Newcastle Grammar, St Joseph’s Primary and The Junction Public School are all within easy reach.
