Listing description
About this property
Held by the same family for more than 41 years, this solid brick three bedroom home presents an opportunity where the future is every bit as exciting as the present. Yes, there's work to be done. A lot of it! Norfolk Street is one of Islington's most desirable addresses, a leafy, tree-lined streetscape where beautifully restored and renovated homes showcase the suburb's enduring appeal. Whether your vision is a sympathetic restoration that celebrates the home's period character or a complete knockdown and rebuild, the potential is undeniable. High ornate ceilings, decorative fretwork, original fireplaces and generous room proportions offer a glimpse of what could be achieved through a thoughtful renovation, while the 328qm block provides a blank canvas for those looking to start again (STCA). Adding further appeal is a feature seldom found in Islington, a private driveway leading to a single garage. Just 650m from Islington Park, you can jump on the cycleway and ride through the harbour, Honeysuckle and all the way to Nobbys. Wander to the Maryville Tavern for a bistro meal or catch up with friends over a drink, or head to Beaumont Street where cafés, pubs and restaurants line the strip. Add vintage stores, artisan retailers, local breweries and almost instant access to Newcastle Interchange, where a light rail trip can have you at the beach in minutes, and it's easy to see why Islington remains one of Newcastle's most sought-after inner-city suburbs. - Solid brick home, 328sqm block, R3 zoning - Currently configured with separate lounge and dining rooms, three bedrooms and original kitchen and bathroom spaces - Charming original character - Zoned sought-after Tighes Hill Public School 1km - Marketown 2.3km, Honeysuckle 3km, Bar Beach 4km Disclaimer: We have obtained this property information from sources we believe to be reliable; however, we cannot guarantee its accuracy.
