Unique homes in desirable elevated locations (Mayfield Heights) are often sought but rarely found. This is truly a one of a kind, two stories with a very versatile layout.
Four bedrooms, large open plan lounge opening to an impressive entertaining deck with expansive views over Newcastle and suburbs.

The home offers versatility with three bedrooms upstairs, large kitchen and walk in dressing room (bedroom three) large wet room bath and shower room with a hidden laundry chute, there’s also a private light filled office space.

Downstairs offers a large bedroom and lounge area with a second full bathroom. The possibilities for this space are endless, separate rental income, extended family or teenagers retreat. The home has garaging for three cars with automated door and access to a private backyard with semi in ground pool and a safe play area for the children.

The level of finish makes this one of Mayfield’s unique properties, inspection is a must.

Information below is provided by the owner,

* Panoramic easterly views at the rear include landmarks such as the cathedral, Nobbies headland right through to Stockton bridge and beyond towards port Stephens. Wide but distant ocean views, see the ships come into harbor and watch the New year’s eve fireworks from the deck. The view lights up like a fairy tale at night and is the most commented on aspect of the house. This was the inspiration to raise the house.
* The house was designed to allow separation of downstairs/upstairs if required while still allowing it to be used comfortably and normally as one home. There is a master key system that opens front door/upstairs only and front door/downstairs only plus, of course, master key. French doors to deck keyed alike. Downstairs is fully self contained. Solid core deadlock doors downstairs enable various access configurations
* Sub mains upstairs with potential for separate metering.
* Original lead light door and matching highlights to upstairs entry/hall
* 3m plus ceilings upstairs
* Upstairs walls mostly have the original timber battening behind the new plaster. Kids/tenants can’t punch holes in walls.
* Mostly original solid timber panel doors upstairs.
* The front porch was rebuilt to look like the original house as per photo.
* The front porch would make an ideal en suite and has easy access to plumbing. Desk and shelving is included in sale and the space works perfectly well as an office with ample power and phone lines. The office split door was designed in combination with baby gate at top of stairs to keep pets and kids within view but not under foot. It was positioned at the front of the house so business visitors would not compromise privacy
