18 Ellerslie Road, Adamstown Heights, NSW, 2289, Australia

This gorgeous property has been superbly renovated to pay homage to its original style but with modern updates that allow the home to be more practical with a contemporary flair. From the breathtaking, herringbone, engineered hardwood floors to the custom cabinetry, from the statement light fixtures to the original working fireplace, this home has been lovingly restored with a sophisticated eye for detail.

Step into the charming foyer and see instantly how the old blends beautifully with the new in this sublime renovation. High ceilings, picture rails and multi-step cornices are just some of the classic heritage features that have been retained. The original working fireplace is divine and provides the perfect spot to snuggle up and finally get to that book you have been meaning to read on a chilly Newcastle night. A contemporary kitchen overlooking the enormous backyard, brand new carpet – so soft underfoot in a coffee colour and coastal texture - and an uber modern bathroom, all add a contemporary feel to this character filled home.

Situated just moments from two of Newcastle's most popular retail and dining hubs and less than 10 minutes to stunning Merewether Beach this property is ideally located. It sits in an elevated position with views across the city to the Sugarloaf Range and belies its proximity to a main road with a quiet that is surprising given its central location.
