Hidden Gem in the Heart of North Newtown!
Uniquely positioned opposite the Newtown community gardens is this snug 3 bedroom 2 storey terrace. It's flooded with natural light on its prized corner position.

With frontages to 3 streets, there are no neighbouring buildings to over-shadow the house. Also, 2 generous skylights allow sunlight to pour into the kitchen & bathroom, Plus, every morning in the east-facing kitchen you will wake up to a cosy kitchen overflowing with sunbeams.
Although it's just 100 metres behind King St. and Missenden Road., It's an unexpectedly quiet oasis as all the main buildings in both streets soak up the traffic noise. The only sounds drifting across from the lush community garden will be idle chatter as locals tend their vegie patches.

You'll step inside to peace & quiet. From the high-ceilinged front bedroom, you look directly to the community garden through the leaves on the front yard tree. It takes a double bed easily.
Then, the entry opens up to the traditional living room with ample space for your lounge & flat-screen monitor.

Next, step onto the kitchen with its rich polished cypress pine flooring. That natural timber warmth extends to all the cabinets and drawers, all custom-made from rare 7-layer plywood. These are timeless quality finishes There's an instant heat gas cooktop & oven, and generous space for family gatherings around the kitchen table.

You will appreciate the new architect-designed laundry, toilet & shower. This section was built in 2017, at a cost of over $150,000. with all-new everything...new brick walls, concrete flooring with plumbing, floor & wall tiles, laundry tub, toilet and fully tiled shower recess with 10mm glass sliding door., and instantaneous gas hot water for unlimited luxuriant showers. The Building Occupying Certificate, approvals and receipts are available proving the addition complies with City of Sydney Council building regulations. Plus, you can check to history of the house over the past 20 years by reading every expense and rental income statement from 2003. You could call them "the log books for the house", there is nothing to hide. Again the new skylights allow brilliant sunlight to add natural warmth & sparkle to the new addition. Generous windows permit the natural circulation of fresh air.

Upstairs are the 2 full-sized bedrooms, both large enough for a double bed. Each has built-in wardrobes, the front bedroom overlooks the community garden, whilst the rear bedroom enjoys a full-width window with a panoramic view far across Sydney. You'll be surprised just how far you can see.

Outside is the secure backyard, with a side gate opening to the rear lane. Like the rest of the house, the yard is washed with sunlight., with space for a BBQ, table & chairs. There's a fold-up clothesline to let the sun do the drying for you.

Of course, the house is secure, all windows have wrought iron grilles, and wrought iron doors front & back. Both doors are keyed alike, one key opens both, .

Newtown, and North Newtown in particular is the beating heart of the inner-west. Everything you need is just a stone's throw away. Within 100 metres is the vibrant King Street strip, bursting with every cuisine in restaurants, cafes & takeaways that Sydney has to offer. In easy walking distance, you'll find Sydney Uni, Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, The Chris O'Brien Lighthouse and the Dendy Movie Theatre. Walk another 5 minutes & you'll arrive at Newtown Railway Station. Or catch any of the convenient bus routes to Sydney CBD, from King Street.
