Beautiful Terrace Home with Courtyard
Summary:
Tucked into iconic Cooks Hill, this air-conditioned, stylish terrace puts Newcastle’s vibrant culture on your doorstep. The home features light-filled interiors, two private ensuite bedrooms, a charming garden courtyard, and rare double garage parking. Wander to buzzing cafés, acclaimed restaurants, galleries, and beaches within minutes. Whether visiting for a coastal escape, work, or a long weekend, this private retreat is the perfect base for immersing yourself in the city’s energy.
The Space:
Step inside and discover a terrace that blends thoughtful design with a laid-back coastal atmosphere. The air-conditioned open-plan living and dining area is filled with natural light and styled in calming neutral tones, with comfortable furnishings that invite you to truly unwind. A generous sofa and armchairs create a cosy lounge
area — perfect for a quiet evening, movie night, or morning coffee before exploring the city.
The fully equipped kitchen makes cooking a pleasure, complete with an induction cooktop, oven, dishwasher, and coffee machine. A private laundry with a washer and dryer adds convenience for longer stays.
Upstairs, both bedrooms offer queen beds, soft bedding, built-in storage, air-conditioning, and private en-suites — providing comfort, privacy, and a restful night’s sleep. Despite the central location, the home is wonderfully peaceful; mornings are often greeted by birdsong or the distant hum of Newcastle Harbour.
Outside, a garden courtyard offers a tranquil spot to relax with a book, share a meal, or enjoy a glass of wine beneath soft fairy lights as evening settles in. Tastefully curated throughout, the home captures the easy charm of coastal living while keeping you moments from the city’s vibrant heart.
