Auction Location: PRD Newcastle 2/16 Telford St. Newcastle East and Live via Auction Now Website

You will be pleasantly surprised by the generous amount of space inside this four-bedroom, two-bathroom residence, and behind its rather unassuming faade, it's unexpectedly quiet and wonderfully private. Elevated above its oversized single garage and workshop, the house flows over a practical single level flaunting a hint of original character, lots of natural light, and scope to make it your own with some minor updates. Just 2.5km to the sand and surf, this is a superb entry level home into the suburb where everyone wants to live.

Fresh neutral dcor and timber floors deliver an inviting first impression, while air conditioning keeps things comfortable. A timber, electric-equipped kitchen is the home's beating heart with easy flow from the adjoining lounge and dining spaces, both of which are welcoming and spacious. Open the back door to an utterly private alfresco entertaining area fringed with greenery, where beyond a surprisingly spacious backyard adjoins a reserve at the rear.

Whether you're enjoying dining and boutique shopping at The Junction, or the sand and surf of Merewether Beach, this home delivers on location and promises a relaxed, carefree lifestyle. Westfield Kotara, Beaumont Street and Glenrock State Conservation Area are all close by too for a hit of dining, shopping, or exercise.
