Classic Cottage Full of Surprises with a Pool and Upper Level Extra Bedroom

Auction Location: In Rooms

This gorgeous cottage holds more than a few surprises. Step inside and you’ll find an unexpected upper level extension that adds a third bedroom, and out the back, a solar-heated mineral pool that feels like your own little holiday resort. It’s a home that balances character with creativity. Cedar ceilings, picture rails, and dado boards nod to its history, while warm timber touches in the kitchen and bathroom bring in a contemporary edge.

Natural light pours through the open floorplan, and French doors connect seamlessly to a covered deck where lazy afternoons roll into poolside evenings. There’s even a daybed, powder room and hot and cold outdoor shower for effortless entertaining.

It’s rare to find a home that feels like a private sanctuary yet keeps you plugged into city life.
From bike rides to Nobbys via the Honeysuckle foreshore, to bread runs at Uprising Bakery or dinner at Maryville Tavern, the best of Newcastle is on your doorstep. Add in Islington Park, vintage store browsing, and Beaumont Street’s café scene, all just a stroll away, and you’ve got inner-city living wrapped in a lifestyle that feels pretty special.
