About our home

Our beautifully restored brick Californian bungalow is in a leafy neighbourhood in Newcastle. Our home features a fantastic open-plan extension and back deck for alfresco BBQs. It overlooks an enclosed yard with a gorgeous kid's cubby. Our house has a sparkling, renovated bathroom (with bath), plus a separate toilet off the laundry. It features all the mod cons including ducted air conditioning/heating. Gorgeous gardens with iceberg roses, lavender and frangipani tree. Stunning Jacarandas line our street and there's a charming front balcony for sundowners. Two bedrooms have super comfy queen size beds with quality linen. The third bedroom is set up as a nursery so if you have a little one, they'll feel right at home. We have plenty of children's books, toys, bikes etc. We're both interested in interior decorating so the house has a contemporary feel with quirky features like vintage type writers, old bus rolls, retro red scooter and other market finds or treasures sourced overseas. We love travel, have an addiction to good coffee and can point out all of Newcastle's treasures for you to explore.
