Forming an integral part of Newcastle's rich heritage, 'Carclew', is a superb example of the architectural elegance of the late 1800s. Magnificently situated within a beautiful established landscaped garden with tennis court and pool oasis, this Victorian manor's captivating combination of exquisite period splendour and relaxed contemporary comfort provides impressive family lifestyle appeal. The huge 3/4 of an acre block also offers subdivision potential (STCA) and hosts a two bedroom cottage accessed via a rear lane.

The home reveals all the classic features of the period including feature fireplaces, rich timber floors, a sweeping Australian cedar staircase, deep cornices, decorative ceiling roses, an elaborate hallway arch and a large encircling verandah accessed from almost every upstairs room.

Inside, the magnificent foyer, typical of its era, runs past three elegant rooms all with fireplaces and interchangeably used as formal lounge, dining and study. Delivering modern convenience matched with the classicism of Victorian features, a three way family bathroom rests nearby. A sympathetic renovation by the current owners and designed by Bourne and Blue Architecture reveals contemporary open plan family living, chef's kitchen and laundry. Enhanced by the light of a North-Westerly aspect, it features glass sliding doors that seamlessly link the inside to a grand paved terrace protected by an ancient Hoop pine.

Upstairs the exceptional five bedroom accommodation is supported by a sumptuous family bathroom, additional w/c, ducted air-conditioning and vacuum. A Juliette balcony and sweeping verandahs on all sides offers ocean and city glimpses and secluded vantage points to sit and enjoy the gardens or entertain family and friends in complete privacy.
