Hidden along a residents-only lane off Church Street, "The Boltons" is one of those addresses most buyers never expect to find, let alone secure. Designed by Frederick Menkens and completed in 1904, this tightly held collection of four Federation houses occupies an elevated north-facing position overlooking Newcastle Harbour, and Number 3 is being offered for just the fourth time, underscoring its scarcity. Inside, scale is the immediate standout. Rooms are generous, ceilings soar, and original detailing has been carefully preserved, allowing the home's heritage to speak with confidence and warmth. Pressed metal ceilings, Kauri pine floors and original fireplaces are layered with thoughtful modern upgrades, including a refreshed kitchen, a contemporary master ensuite and the unexpected luxury of a private saltwater pool. The floorplan is deliberately flexible, with multiple oversized rooms that transition easily between formal living, casual gathering spaces or additional bedrooms depending on your needs. Alfresco areas unfold at both levels, with a classic upper verandah framing harbour views and catching cooling sea breezes. Parking for three vehicles round out this home where history, privacy and inner-city privilege harmonize in a way few rarely do.
