Last Listing description (September 2022)

Imagine if you could have bought in downtown Morpeth or Catherine Hill Bay before they went ballistic in price.

West Wallsend has that same step back in time, lovely little country town feel, with a real rural flavour, there's even a local saddlery shop, yet it is literally on the doorstep of the major growth areas of Newcastle, with Cameron Park and Glendale just minutes away, so work and infrastructure are oh so close by.

Here you don't feel like you're living in the "burbs" or the "big smoke", you can literally walk to everything, from cafes and antique shops to the local grocer, pharmacy and school and if you don't drive, that's no problem whatsoever, as the bus stop isn't far from your door.

There's a real sense of community here and you can feel the town is on the cusp of change, in all the right ways, without losing its integrity and historical feel.

So beat the crowds, before they discover the place and the town is really on the map, and grab yourself an incredible bargain!

A fabulously affordable cottage with real yesteryear charm, on a lovely block with a rear outlook to nothing but blue sky, shade trees and grass!

- Genuine miner's cottage appeal, expect soaring ceilings & hardwood flooring
- Timber floorboards & timber lined walls & ceilings add authenticity & character
- Lofty ceilings & a feature two way fireplace complete the cottage look & feel
- Extended outward off the back to allow for a genuine good size third bedroom
- The kitchen is now located to the rear with a lovely outlook over the backyard
- Contemporary features include built in robes, split system air & downlighting
- Much loved, the residence was home to a mum looking for value & character
- She's hung on to this little gem for years, renting it out after a coastal move
- Very sad to say goodbye, other financial responsibilities force her hand to sell
- She reminisces about the well out the back & horses tied up at the local shops
- If you prefer character over cookie cutter & potential over practical, but boring
- Then this home will appeal to you, especially if your budget is beyond tight
- As long as your vision, passion & willingness to hook in, is broad you'll love it
- 3 great size bedrooms, 2 with built in robes, a simple but effective bathroom
- Big & practical, lovely & light filled rear kitchen, with downlights & dishwasher
- Blessed with a beautiful sunny aspect out to the lovely shaded backyard
- The ceiling heights are still right up there & the fireplace is a keeper too
- Use your imagination & you'll see a kitchen more in keeping with the style
- & imagine it opening out to a gorgeous inexpensive big back deck addition
- This is a home you'll have fun with, in a town you will love watching emerge

I can picture a little tea rooms house here, or a charming work from home surgery, studio or wellness clinic, or perhaps a future cottage industry business you run from home, all would be subject to council approval, but it's nice to think about all of your options and the potential!

While there are a few flaws, the blessings far out weigh them and then there's that super budget beating price point that makes you forgive the little things, that yes you could get somewhere else, but they'd be in a boring, suburban blah, blah blah house and who wants that?
