3 The Crescent

Wallsend NSW 2287

Situated at the top of 'The Crescent', this quintessential heritage home is a beautiful blend of the old and the new. With an uber central location - just minutes from the University of Newcastle, excellent schools, hospitals and a short stroll to a major shopping centre and food hub - this property would make the ideal first home or an outstanding rental property.

Ornate cornices and architraves, hardwood floors, lead light and stained-glass windows, timber window awnings and a gorgeous grey weatherboard exterior, add character and charm to this lovely home. A contemporary open-plan kitchen and family room looks out through the sun room to the cute back deck, where an enviable north-east aspect ensures morning sun and a cosy spot for a pancake breakfast for the kids or simply a coffee before work. The kitchen - complete with stainless steel gas range and dishwasher - along with a modern bathroom, sleek block-out blinds, split system air conditioning, and mirrored built-in closets, all add contemporary style, convenience and function.

A paved courtyard, leads to the front door, there is abundant room for a swing set and trampoline and a long driveway offers plenty of off-street parking. Then there is the convenience this location offers. If you forget the milk or a loaf of bread you are just a few hundred metres from the convenience of one of Newcastle's largest shopping centres and it is a two-minute walk to the recently renovated Jesmond Hotel for a cocktail or dinner with friends!
