Auction Location: PRD Newcastle 2/16 Telford St, Newcastle East and Live via Auction Now Website
In the blue-chip neighbourhood of Merewether, this deceptively classic circa 1920's Californian Bungalow bestows an inviting presence. Charming twin flowerpots welcome you to the lovely front porch, whispering barely a hint of the extraordinary character inside.
Enter to the grandeur of a bygone era with high, ornate ceilings and vintage elegance flowing through the 3 front bedrooms and main bathroom. Lead light bay windows form a stunning showpiece in 2 of the bedrooms along with lovingly restored Kauri floorboards. French frosted diamond glass doors lead from the wide entrance hall to the expansive lounge, dining and kitchen. Here, the essence of yesteryear holds strong while stylish modern-day updates just enhance the overall sophistication. A contemporary wood fire heater takes centrestage, and impressive pendant lights accentuate the traditional high paneled ceiling with cutting-edge sky roof that opens to let fresh air pour in as well as sunshine. The kitchen has dramatic appeal with exposed painted ceiling beams, dark cabinetry and wood accents combined with a Caesarstone cloudburst concrete benches, plus a functional butler's space. More French doors lead out to the north balcony that wraps around the home and looks down over the lagoon-style pool and flowers shrouding the entertaining area. Vines wind their way along the fence offering a beautiful leafy ambience, and even the storage area off the yard has a row of stunning antique glass decorative doors, a consistent characteristic of the home's style. At the back of the house is the grand finale, the spectacular parents retreat. A row of vintage wooden doors conceal the built-in robe one side and timber stained glass windows on the other, the balcony has direct access via glass sliding doors, vintage pure linen curtains puddle theatrically under the windows and an enormous ensuite presents a freestanding bathtub to luxuriate in. It is the eclectic blend of antique and artfully selected contemporary, all united in total elegance that really grants this home's unique and charming character.
A long driveway and double garage, plus downstairs laundry and media room or teen retreat with 3rd toilet complete this beautiful family home. And of course, you have the golf club, cafes, restaurants, parks, world-class beaches and the ocean baths nearby, as well as popular Merewether Public School. Spend leisurely Sundays strolling to popular Henderson Park for a play and picnic with the family, and grab a coffee at your new local, the Bootleg Café.
