70 Douglas St, Wallsend is a 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom House with 2 parking spaces and was built in 1960. The property has a land size of 556m2 and floor size of 129m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in April 2022.
This is one of those properties that has an enormous amount of soul and a warm and homely persona. 9ft plaster ceilings, hardwood floors and original skirts and architraves give it a heart-warming sense of charm and character, while a previous restoration has added a playful quirkiness that will be hard to resist.
Wonderfully private and secure behind an enclosed verandah, the block's approximate 15.24m frontage gifts it an extra wide driveway where you can park multiple vehicles in addition to the home's tandem garage. Two interconnecting bedrooms rest at the front of the layout and the third at the rear with the lounge and dining area at the home's heart along with a study that's fitted out with bookcases. The electric-equipped kitchen is spacious, and along with a full-size bathroom, there's an internal laundry with handy second w/c. An enclosed alfresco entertaining area adds the finishing touches.
Douglas Street is just 850m from Jesmond Central shopping centre, 2.2km from the University of Newcastle and an easy commute to the city and freeway via link roads. For added convenience the number 24 bus stop nearby will take you to the university and the city via Mayfield and Carrington.
