Step into chic and savvy living with this stunning home that flaunts the perfect blend of style and functionality. Nestled on a 303.5sqm block, this dual-level gem is a masterclass in small footprint, big impact living. Originally a quaint two-bedroom cottage from the 1920s, the residence effortlessly marries timeless charm with contemporary updates, creating a living space that's tailor-made for the demands of the 21st century. The rear extension, featuring polished concrete floors, sleek black accents, and a floating steel staircase, not only adds a touch of industrial flair but also connects the lower level seamlessly to the sophisticated master suite and fifth bedroom upstairs. Revel in the luxury of under-floor heating and a clever two-way fireplace that separates the lounge room from the open-plan family living area. The kitchen is a real highlight and will catch the eye of entertainers with its hard wearing Fenix benchtops and cabinetry, butler's pantry, and hi-spec Siemens appliances. Outdoor living also beckons with a covered spotted gum deck overlooking the fenced yard with ample space for the kids and pets to frolic beneath the shade of a majestic Jacaranda and Frangipani tree. The oversized single garage with a workshop and laundry area adds the final touches to this 10/10 home. Convenience takes centre stage with Adamstown Public School just 300m away. And with everything from shopping, dining, buses, and trains to beach days and city adventures at your fingertips, this home is not just a dwelling, it's an invitation to a lifestyle where style and functionality meets accessibility in perfect harmony.  Double fronted cottage cleverly extended up and out on a low maintenance block  Two separate living areas separated by a two-way fireplace  Two front bedrooms with ducted heating and ceiling fans  Blackbutt timber floors, ducted a/c, security cameras, in-ceiling speakers  Striking kitchen with 900mm gas cooktop, steam oven, regular oven, integrated fridge/freezer, integrated dishwasher, butler's pantry  Main bathroom with under-floor heating, frameless glass shower, bathtub  Master suite with Juliette balcony, walk-in robe & twin shower, twin vanity ensuite  Covered spotted gum deck for alfresco entertaining  Oversize single garage with workshop and laundry area  300m to Adamstown Public school, 1km to Merewether High, zoned Kotara High  3km to Newcastle Interchange and the edge of the CBD, harbour and beaches Outgoings: Council Rates: $2,240 approx. per annum Water Rates: $908.22 approx. per annum Expected Rental Income: $1.000 - $1,100 Per week ***Health & Safety Measures are in Place for Open Homes & All Private Inspections Disclaimer: All information provided by Presence Real Estate in the promotion of a property for either sale or lease has been gathered from various third-party sources that we believe to be reliable.
