9/35 Shortland Esp

Wake up to rolling waves, refreshing sea breezes and postcard views across Newcastle Beach from this stylish dual-level residence in the sought-after Azura complex. With its own private entrance off Shortland Esplanade and a layout that feels far more townhouse than apartment, this is beachfront living with a rare sense of space, privacy and connection to the coastline. Stylish upgrades include integrated cabinetry for extra storage, statement wallpaper and an ethanol fireplace adding warmth and atmosphere. On entry, the open plan living zone spills effortlessly between front and side courtyards. Enjoy your morning coffee with the surf as your backdrop out front or retreat to the private internal courtyard for relaxed alfresco dining away from the world. The floorplan has been cleverly designed for separation too, with the main bedroom and ensuite tucked privately on the ground floor away from the social spaces, while two additional bedrooms upstairs share a full-size bathroom. Ducted air-conditioning, tandem parking for two cars and a storage cage add further practicality. Take the rear gate from the courtyard straight down to the secure parking level or wander through the complex to enjoy Azura's residents-only 25m heated lap pool, spa and barbecue area. And then there's the lifestyle. Newcastle Beach sits directly across the road, while cafés, wine bars, restaurants and the heritage-listed Ocean Baths are all just footsteps from your door. Here, everyday really does feel like a holiday. - Granite island kitchen, Smeg gas cooktop, under bench oven, double dish drawer - Ground floor main bedroom, mirror robe, ceiling fan, ensuite - Two upper level robed bedrooms share a bathroom with shower over bathtub - Ducted a/c throughout and beautiful cross ventilation - Secure tandem car space and storage cage - Residents' heated lap pool, spa and barbecue area - Wander across the road to the beach, Ocean Baths, skate park - For coffee, eats, treats and drinks stroll to The Kiosk, Liquid Gold, Estabar, Noah's, East End Ice Creamery, Scotties Disclaimer: We have obtained this property information from sources we believe to be reliable; however, we cannot guarantee its accuracy.
