183 Croudace Street, New Lambton Heights.

Set within the peaceful, leafy New Lambton Heights, Pullborough immediately redefines expectations. Pullborough has the rare ability to be grand in scale, playful in spirit, and incredibly generous in the way it accommodates family and social life. Created in 1940 by Newcastle architects Hoskings and Pilgrim as a distinctive two-storey "Attic Residence" for Wallsend pharmacist John Kelso Fagan and his young family, this remarkable home was built with the craftsmanship, individuality and generosity that has become impossible to replicate. More than eight decades later, its original character remains beautifully intact, from the architectural sketches framed on the walls and restored brass gasoliers now converted to electricity, to the pitched roofline, period detailing and substantial basement that once served as a wartime bomb shelter. There is beauty and quality at every turn. Yet for all its history, this is not a house that wants you to stand back and admire it. It is a home where your family will thrive. Holding an incredible collection of spaces for everyone to gather and find retreat, it is perfectly suited to busy family life, multi-generational households, blended families and weekends when the guest list keeps growing. There are expansive family rooms for everyone to congregate, a private inner courtyard, formal and informal spaces for small scale entertaining to grand parties, and quieter corners that allow different generations, ages and interests to coexist without being cramped. Bedrooms are spread across the upper level beneath the home's distinctive roofline, while the former Maid's Room has become a character-rich library and the attic studio above the double garage offers another bedroom, retreat or creative space. A converted workshop has its own personality too, opening through French doors to the garden and offering an inspiring setting for work, art, teenagers, guests or a peaceful retreat space. It is this flexibility combined with the sheer number of ways the home can adapt to your family's needs that gives Pullborough its enduring appeal. Its craftsmanship is everywhere: in the scale of the rooms, the original details, the hand-finished elements and the care invested across a remarkable 22-year restoration of the house and garden. Then there is the garden, where hand-built stone walls, winding paths, mature plantings, rambling roses, productive vegetable gardens, a Summer House, fire-pit and garden shed create a landscape made for exploration, play and days outdoors. Set on 1,395sqm in one of New Lambton Heights' most tightly held pockets, Pullborough is historic without being precious, substantial without being imposing, and imaginative enough to grow with the people who call it home. It has already accommodated generations of family life, creativity, entertaining and change, and now it is ready for its next exciting chapter. - Iconic 1940 Cape Cod-style "Attic Residence" located within a prestige and tightly-held pocket - A series of beautiful living zones unfold across the main level with the family zone opening to a private inner deck and courtyard with swim spa - Stunning kitchen features marble benchtops, top quality appliances, rich timber accents and designer lighting - Four upper-level bedrooms with potential for the library to be adapted as a fifth - Three bathrooms – the luxurious main and master both feature a deep bathtub - Carrara marble fireplace, original leadlight feature window, ducted air conditioning - Separate studio with a private courtyard – it's the ultimate guest accommodation - Substantial basement adds incredible versatility and comes with wartime history - Attic studio above the double garage creates another versatile room – ideal as a home office, bedroom or art space - Terraced gardens meander through hand-built stone walls and multiple winding pathways - Summer House and a quaint garden shed add to the garden's storybook charm - Fresh paint and considered updates have renewed the interior and created a modern family home - Set upon approximately 1,395sqm of gently sloping and perfectly groomed grounds - Located near the John Hunter Hospital – it's a perfect base for medical staff - Minutes to Blackbutt Reserve, Westfield Kotara, Charlestown Square and quality schools We have obtained all information used in the preparation of this document from third party sources however, we cannot guarantee the accuracy or currency of this information.
