81 King Street, Newcastle NSW 2300

Reflecting the classic proportions and enduring grace of its c.1840's heritage, this tri-level Colonial Georgian style terrace will capture your heart. Flaunting the results of a spectacular renovation, its minimalistic elegance seamlessly fuses old world charm with modern luxuries. The home sits in a truly superb location from where you can run barefoot to the beach, stroll across King Edward Park to the bogey hole or grab a drink or bite to eat in the city or Honeysuckle.

A stunning ornate plaster ceiling, timber floorboards and a cast iron fireplace pay homage to the era, while premium inclusions such as Carrara marble tiles, 100% pure wool carpet and new in-floor ducted a/c provide a high-end finish to the home.

Crisp, neutral décor contrasts against the Black Japan floors to create a warm and inviting ambience in the wide entrance and grand formal lounge room. Across the hallway, the master bedroom offers a private retreat for parents, with a sunroom, custom fitted walk-in wardrobe and a stylishly appointed ensuite complete with double shower, heated towel rail and brushed gold tapware.

A second bathroom and laundry precede a generous landscaped alfresco area at the rear giving this period home the indoor-outdoor lifestyle modern buyers want.

Mid level, find two bedrooms and the family bathroom complete with freestanding bath, black-framed shower and separate w/c, along with the bright open plan lounge and dining zone, that offers a multi-functional space for connected family living.

The island kitchen is an eye-catching centrepiece in this relaxed space, exquisitely styled with a contemporary black and white colour palette. Calacatta Nuvo Caesarstone benchtops, integrated French door fridge-freezer, dishwasher and Ilve gas stove add to the room's luxe look, while shaker-style cabinetry and a butler's sink tie in with the home's period character.

Destined to catch the eye of large families or suited to a nanny or visiting guests, two exceptionally spacious bedrooms offer sanctuary status on the upper level.
