Last Listing description (August 2023)

One of Newcastle's best kept secrets, the Old Courthouse at Minmi, sits majestically on over 2000 square metres of private land and gardens.

Unique is so many ways, ?the Old Courthouse? is the hub of the wheel in the Newcastle, Maitland, Raymond Terrace, and Central Coast regions with quick and easy access to Sydney, Singleton, and the North.

Originally built circa 1886 on land gifted by Baron John Brown, the courthouse remained in government hands until 1955 when it was first sold to private owners. Throughout its rich (circa) 135-year history, there have been minimal changes to the residence, with many original features still in place such as the exercise yard with its iron bar roof, steel gaol cell doors, the courtrooms stunning cedar panelled ceilings, and two magnificent, grand arched leadlight windows.

A generously proportioned, purpose-built restaurant was added in 1992 (the building still holds a Liquor Licence) and this added to the established previous uses of day care, art gallery and museum.

The home has eight open fireplaces, six of them are original marble, each with its own stunning colour and design, another is tuck-pointed brick built in 1901, while the huge open fireplace that dominates the spacious restaurant is faced with original sandstock bricks.

Set over two levels, the Old Courthouse provides opportunity and diversity for those with resourcefulness who dare to dream. However, if your ambitions are focused more on family and relaxation, then there's plenty of space for everyone in the sprawling property of over 500 square metres, where you can choose to relax in front of one of the many fireplaces or on one of the beautiful verandahs which surround the building.

The ground floor level features a two-bedroom apartment as well as an additional self-contained one bedroom living area, each with their own private access. (Apartments subject to council approval.)

As they explore the property, future custodians will discover the tiny crowns stamped into the various timber sections of the building, and inherit unique historical items collected over the years.
