52 Kenrick Street, Merewether NSW 2291

An exciting opportunity to create something entirely your own and positioned on blue-chip Kenrick Street, this completely original brick-built beauty is ready for its next chapter. The bones are here: three king bedrooms, a separate lounge and dining room, one bathroom and high ceilings give the home its enduring appeal.

There have been no renovations and no cosmetic updates, making this a perfect blank canvas for buyers who want to roll up their sleeves and seize an opportunity in one of The Junction's most prestigious pockets. Renovate and restore the existing home, rework the layout or explore an extension into the deep backyard, where there is generous room to create an open plan layout. For renovators or builders, this is a property where the work will be rewarded by the address and a dual-occupancy project is possible (STCA).

And what an address it is, with The Junction's cafes, boutiques and shopping at the end of the street, Hamilton South Public School nearby and the CBD, Darby Street, Marketown, Harris Farm and Newcastle Grammar all within easy reach. The beach is close enough to make a morning swim part of your routine, while the prestige of Kenrick Street provides the backdrop for whatever comes next.
