Merewether 71 Berner Street
Renovate and Reap the Rewards of this Torrens Title Townhouse in Merewether
Peacefully positioned in one of Newcastle's most sought-after beachside suburbs, this solidly built 1990s townhouse offers a standout opportunity to invest, renovate or further capitalise. Tucked in a quiet street just 5 minutes' walk to The Junction's cafes and shops, and moments from Bar Beach and Merewether's famed surf and sand, the location alone will spark attention.
Spanning two levels, the layout offers excellent separation and space with three robed bedrooms upstairs, including a main bedroom with ensuite, walk-in robe and balcony. The lounge and dining areas are separate, while the original kitchen and private backyard offer clear potential for modern updates. Internal access from a single garage, plus a downstairs laundry and powder room complete a functional floorplan.
Currently leased to a long-standing tenant and set on a larger land parcel than its neighbour, this is an outstanding prospect for investors or renovators seeking lifestyle and location.
