Tucked within a quiet brick complex, this minimalist apartment provides a practical and comfortable base for exploring Newcastle at your own pace. Stretch out on the leather lounge and catch a show on the TV while enjoying the year-round comfort of split system air conditioning in the open-plan living area. Step onto the private balcony with seating for two—perfect for a slow morning cuppa as the sunlight rolls in. Prepare simple meals in the well-equipped kitchen, complete with an oven, stove, microwave, full-size fridge, and dishwasher. Brew coffee with the espresso machine or perch at the kitchen bench on a bar stool for a quick breakfast. Gather around the six-seater dining table to share a relaxed dinner or map out tomorrow’s adventures along the coast. Settle in for a good night’s sleep in either of the two carpeted bedrooms. Unwind in the primary room with a queen bed and private balcony access, or relax in the second bedroom with two single beds—ideal for family or friends. Ceiling fans help keep both rooms breezy through warmer nights. Refresh in the clean, functional bathroom, complete with a shower, bathtub, and complimentary toiletries. Take care of laundry downstairs with a private washer—handy for longer stays. Parking is simple, with one spot on the premises and plenty of free street parking nearby.
