Listing description
About this property
Held on an exceptionally rare 892sqm parcel in the heart of Islington, this original weatherboard home presents an opportunity where the land is every bit as compelling as the address. While the home itself is ready for a significant renovation, restoration or replacement, the true value lies in the scale of the site and its highly sought-after R4 High Density zoning. With a generous 15.24m frontage and substantial depth, the property offers exciting potential for a multi-dwelling development in one of Newcastle's fastest-evolving inner-city precincts. For developers, it's a chance to unlock the site's future value. For homebuyers, it's the opportunity to secure a block size rarely found this close to the city and create a contemporary family home with room for everything from a pool and entertaining zones to extensive garaging and landscaped gardens (all subject to council approval). The existing three bedroom residence retains charming period details including ornate ceilings, timber joinery, leadlight features and generous room proportions. Comfortable enough to occupy or lease while plans take shape, it provides flexibility for buyers exploring their options. Positioned directly opposite Wickham Park, you'll have one of Newcastle's great green spaces quite literally across the road. Morning walks, playground adventures, community events and open parkland become part of everyday life, while Beaumont Street's cafés, bars and restaurants are only moments away. Stroll to Islington's growing collection of breweries, creative businesses and coffee spots, catch light rail or rail services from Newcastle Interchange or Hamilton Station, or be at Honeysuckle, the harbour and Newcastle's beaches within minutes. -Block dimensions 15.24m / 14.33m X 60.58m / 60.5m -Original weatherboard home in need of some modern renovations -Rare for the area freestanding single garage plus abundant extra off-street parking -Tighes Hill Public School 2km, Tighes Hill TAFE 2km, SFX 1.3km, Callaghan College Waratah 4.9km, UoN 8km -Hamilton Station 600m, Marketown 2km, Bar Beach 3.9km * This information, including but not limited to photographs (which may show boundaries), copywriting, floorplans, and site plans, has been prepared solely for the purpose of marketing this property.
