20 Hillview Crescent

High above the street, this tri-level Chris Tucker creation makes a bold statement against the skyline. Steel, timber, and concrete come together in a composition that's both sculptural and soulful, where light floods in, breezes drift through, and every turn reveals a striking new perspective. From the 5.5m raked ceiling to the vast glass sliders that dissolve into the landscape, this home lives in dialogue with its surrounds. The open plan heart spills out to a series of terraces and a 10m solar-heated lap pool suspended in its own pocket of calm. At night, the city twinkles below, just enough reminder that you're minutes from the action, though it feels a world away. Two oversized bedrooms upstairs capture those knockout views stretching from the harbour to Mount Sugarloaf, with the main claiming a private terrace and dressing room. A third bedroom and second bathroom sit on the main level, along with flexible spaces that can shape-shift between retreat, work, or play. Outside, a lush native garden designed by Octopus Designs brings colour and birdsong to your everyday. And when you do step out, everything from coffee on Darby Street to sunrise swims at Newcastle Beach is just down the hill. - 714.9sqm block, elevated up from the street immersed in northerly light and views - Internally accessed double garage on lower level with great storage - 10m solar heated, saltwater lap pool with in-floor cleaning system by award-winning Vision Pools - Split system a/c to main living area and two upstairs bedrooms, ceiling fans throughout - Galley kitchen with 900mm gas stove, Miele dishwasher, excellent storage - Choice of decks for alfresco dining and entertaining, top level with built-in seating & bar - Two spacious bathrooms, main with clawfoot tub and large shower - 3.6Kw solar system with new inverter - Newcastle Beach 900m, Bar Beach 1600m, King Edward Park 100m at the top of the street - Darby Street, Civic Park and Newcastle Art Gallery 550m - Newcastle East Public School 700m, Newcastle Grammar 700m
