If you crave inner-city living but do not want to be part of the apartment life crush, here is your opportunity to create your own funky urban home or investment property in the heart of Wickham. Undertake a comprehensive renovation or start from scratch with this potential knock-down rebuild, just moments from the CBD in the vibrant and booming suburb of Wickham. The current home features a cute front verandah, three bedrooms, kitchen, living and plumbed bathroom but is basically gutted so you can start planning the reno today. Get on the tools and turn the cheapest house in the city into a second income or your own little piece of the Newcastle property pie. Once all the hard work is done, walk to the newly opened Thermidor Oyster Bar and Brasserie for divine seafood and a bottle of bubbles or perhaps to the Honeysuckle Hotel to take in the water views and a pint or two. Pick up a delish sourdough pizza from Masa Madre just around the corner or make a special night of it at Elementa or The Flotilla. If live music is your thing you can walk to the famed Lass O'Gowrie (just 130 metres away) or catch the tram to the city to catch a show at the iconic Civic Theatre. It is all so easy from this uber central location! * Three bedroom renovator – a totally blank canvas * Or alternatively - knock down and rebuild a funky city abode or investment property * Cheapest home in our beautiful coastal city * Grab a beer at the Albion Hotel(350 metres) or the Newcastle Yacht Club – just 7 mins walk * 300 metres to the Newcastle train and tram exchange * Catch the tram just a couple of stops to the Honeysuckle or Queen's Wharf dining precincts * Trains to Sydney leave on a very regular basis or head to the country or north to Qld * 1.9km to the Newcastle CBD with its thriving coffee culture, theatres and galleries * 8 mins to Bar Beach, 10 mins to Dixon Park SLSC and surf break and 10 mins to Nobbys Beach and lighthouse * 24 mins to Newcastle airport(with domestic and international flights) and Williamtown Air Force Base Outgoings Council rates: $2,359 approx per annum FRIENDLY AUCTION DISCLAIMER: This property is being sold under the Online Friendly Auction System.
