Situated on a generous 593m² corner block with two street frontages, this three-bedroom home presents an excellent opportunity for first home buyers, investors and renovators seeking a property with scope to add value.

The home is ready for a fresh vision, with the kitchen positioned at the rear overlooking the north-facing backyard. The adjoining dining area connects the kitchen and living spaces, while the backyard offers the potential to create an entertaining deck and maximise natural light.

The existing garage is accessed from MacArthur Street, providing flexibility to retain, enlarge or investigate alternative uses, including the potential for a granny flat. A second driveway from Rabaul Street could also provide additional off-street parking or access, all subject to approval.

For those looking beyond the existing home, the corner position and dual street frontage offer potential for future redevelopment, including the possibility of a knockdown and rebuild, subject to council requirements.

Located approximately 5 minutes from Newcastle University and close to Shortland Wetlands and local shops, the property offers convenient access to everyday amenities. Shortland shops are approximately 1km away and include a café, pub, butcher, takeaway options and two service stations. With the Inner City Bypass nearing completion, connectivity to Newcastle and surrounding suburbs is set to improve further.
