Unique opportunity to live just 100 meters from the harbour with no strata fees.
12 Fitzroy Street, Carrington NSW 2294
Auction Location: On Site
On the doorstep of Newcastle city, this contemporary cottage offers an unparalleled mix of lifestyle, amenities, and connectivity.
We could talk all day about the location… across the road from sports ovals, parkrun, kayaking, paddleboarding, and around the corner from pubs, clubs, and cafes. Forget fitness and gastronomy—this area is a dog’s dream with Throsby Creek access just 100 meters away. So close to Carrington Bridge, you can walk to burgeoning Newcastle West and the surrounding foreshore or ride your bike to Newcastle Beach. No doubt, this hip harborside village is poised for solid capital growth with Newcastle’s expanding city skyline.
Set amidst this hive of community activity is a private and peaceful abode offering a variety of recreation spaces to follow the sun or enjoy the microclimates of the landscaped gardens throughout the day. On an easy-care corner block with edible gardens, the foundations for a journey into self-sustainability are already laid.
This is not your stock-standard cottage. Extensive use of glass, an open floor plan, and a conservatory provide multiple light-filled living spaces connected to nature. With 2 bedrooms, a study area, and a combined kitchen/dining area, there is no compromise with smaller-scale living. An oversized loft bedroom provides versatility for your particular needs. Air conditioning and a gas log fire ensure your comfort in all seasons. A large garage provides parking for one car plus ample storage.
There is an outstanding opportunity to add further value to this home and capitalize on the waterside location. You could extend outward or upward to capture water and park views (STCA).
