68 Selwyn St, Merewether NSW 2291, Australia

Built in 1958 and held by the same family ever since, this original three-bedroom home sits on one of those rare, once-in-a-generation blocks that doesn’t show up often in Merewether. With an approximate 1,005.4sqm of north-facing land and a wide 20.12m frontage, you’ve got the kind of space that opens the door to big ideas and bold plans. Think dream home with room for a pool, studio, and huge garage or explore multi-unit development potential in a superb setting (STCA).

 

The current home has had essential upgrades to plumbing, electrics and the kitchen, so you can live in or lease out while you map out your vision. It’s your chance to claim serious landholding in one of Newcastle’s most tightly held coastal suburbs, where large blocks are increasingly rare and always in demand.

 

Merewether speaks for itself: world-class surf breaks, ocean baths, trendy cafés and bars, leafy streets, a proud surf culture, roaring community spirit, and prestige homes setting records.
