Set high amongst a small enclave of homes capturing far-reaching views and a sense of privacy, this eye-catching double brick home, built c.1924 for a BHP engineer, stands out with its elegant period façade and imposing approximate 20m frontage. Distinguished by its oversized rooms, retained period details and extensive use of Western red cedar, a Suters’ designed upper level extension and updates in key areas ensures it functions as a modern family home.
Offering a generous amount of space both inside and out, the home is introduced by a gorgeous sunroom that is large enough to function as a second living space and is perfect for enjoying northerly light and sunshine. The grand lounge room is undoubtedly the star of the show featuring a large bay window and open fireplace. A separate dining room encompasses the modern gas-equipped kitchen while sliding doors open to a choice of two decks and a private backyard where children and pets can play with a sense of freedom. The master bedroom with built-in robe and ensuite is equally as impressive as the lounge room and there is a second bedroom and family bathroom also on ground floor. The extension upstairs features a landing study and two further bedrooms including one with a balcony where you can enjoy a panoramic sweep of Newcastle from the ocean to Mount Sugarloaf.
Wander across the road to Mayfield West Public school and a children’s playground, while the suburb’s vibrant town centre is a 10 minute stroll from here and the city and beaches are just 15 minutes by car.
