52/2 Howden St, Carrington NSW 2294, Australia

Set on the winding banks of Throsby Creek, there is plenty to love about this freshly renovated townhouse in trendy Carrington. Just metres from the Newy parkrun starting line, Newcastle Rowing Club and Connolly Park, it offers an unparalleled lifestyle for fitness lovers. Laidback Sundays are sorted too, with Carrington Bowling Club, The Young Street Hotel and local coffee haunts Cafe Inu and Ground Up Espresso all within easy walking distance.

Featuring fresh paint, carpet and flooring throughout, there is nothing to do except move in and enjoy all that this home has to offer. The renovated kitchen features a crisp, white palette with a unique glass splash back of Newcastle’s iconic Canoe Pool. It flows seamlessly to the living and dining area, outdoors to the paved courtyard so you can stay connected with guests wherever you are whilst entertaining. Upstairs there are three generous bedrooms, the master with an ensuite and private balcony and sea breezes, a luxury shared by the second bedroom.

With a peaceful, private outlook over the mangroves, it’s easy to forget you’re only a 15-minute bike ride along the shared path to Nobbys Beach and a hop, skip and a jump over the Cowper Street bridge to Newcastle Cruising Yacht Club and boat ramp, where you can sail, kayak or stand-up paddle board to your heart’s content.
