A classic gun-barrel cottage in a sought-after inner-city suburb prized for its sense of community and speedy access to this city, this three-bedroom home is the epitome of position and potential. While the residence and garden are perfectly comfortable as is, there is plenty of scope for a new owner to take this property to the next level. Ornate cornices, eye-catching fretwork and timber floors all add charm and character, while the home's good bones are ready for some modern inspiration. Updating the kitchen and bathroom and finishing with a fresh coat of paint would give the property an instant lift while you decide what to do with the deep 506sqm block. With over 50m from the front gate to the back fence, there is plenty of room for a rear extension and the addition of a deck (STCA). For inspiration just look at the next-door neighbours to see what can be achieved in this quiet yet well-connected street. Experience the perks of living in Tighes Hill. Islington Park is easily accessible for dog walkers and young families. There is a great choice of established and new cafes in the area, as well as the popular school and new fresh produce shop, An Apple a Day. Walk or ride your bike along the Throsby Path via Honeysuckle to Nobbys, jump on a bus to the city, or easily access Industrial Drive for a quick commute to Port Stephens or the Hunter Valley. * Classic gun-barrel cottage on north facing 506sqm block * Approximate block dimensions of 10.06m X 50.29m * Timber floors throughout, ornate fretwork and cornices * Three bedrooms served by bathroom with shower over bath and separate w/c * Classically proportioned lounge room, open plan dining and gas-fitted kitchen * Side access to single garage and deep level backyard * 400m to Tighes Hill Public School, 500m to Throsby shared path 3.5km to Newcastle Interchange, 5km to Bar Beach Outgoings: Water: *$730 pa + usage Council: *$2316 pa * approximates only (We have obtained all information used in the preparation of this document from third party sources however, we cannot guarantee the accuracy or currency of this information.
