31 Bruce Street
Cooks Hill, NSW
$3,400,000-$3,650,000
Beautifully restored and extended Californian bungalow c.1919, this home brings together heritage detail, modern additions and a curated mix of bespoke joinery, recycled materials and unique architectural pieces. Along with two titles, an 8m mineral pool, rear lane access and a double garage with attic storage, it delivers a superb floorplan for families of all ages.
The original home holds its character beautifully, with soaring 11ft ornate plaster ceilings, tallowwood floors and a working fireplace, wrapping around a cosy lounge room and three bedrooms that feel warm, grounded and full of personality. The rear extension shifts the scale completely, with exposed beams and trusses overhead, herringbone detailing and a striking gas fireplace creating a space that feels both architectural and inviting. A custom Nadin West kitchen with quality Smeg appliances anchors everyday living and entertaining, designed for both connection and function.
Stacker doors slide away to reveal a deck and the resort style pool, framed by lush greenery that creates a private, calming oasis. It's a space that feels removed from the world, quietly separating the home from the rear lane and double garage beyond.
Upstairs, an air-conditioned parents' retreat offers a sense of escape, complete with a generous bedroom, walk-in robe, ensuite and a large home office.
The home sits within easy walking distance of respected public and private schools, along with Darby Street's well-known café and dining strip. Newcastle's cultural heart is close by, including the Art Gallery, Civic Theatre, Conservatorium of Music, Town Hall and City Library, while the harbour foreshore, beaches and CBD are all easily reached on foot. Everyday essentials, public transport and local pubs complete a location that balances convenience with lifestyle.
