Treasured Beachside Home on 902sqm Corner Block on Offer for First Time 31 Parkway Avenue, Bar Beach Auction Location: The Arc, 45 Watt Street Newcastle. On offer for the first time, this brick beauty was built in the late 1940’s for Frederick and Winifred Woodcock of local timber merchants Earp, Woodcock and Beveridge. Latterly, it was home to their daughter Sheila who was well known in the musical theatre scene in Newcastle in the 1950s and ‘60s. A popular local identity, Sheila hosted the Bar Beach neighbourhood Christmas party at the home for many years. Surrounded by prestigious properties in a highly-prized location just 300m from the sand and surf, the 3-bedroom home is in pristine condition with original 1940’s kitchen and bathrooms, and skirting, architraves, joinery doors and built-in furniture all made from Queensland silky oak. An in-ground swimming pool was added in the 1970s. Perfectly liveable for now, the possibilities are exciting at this beachside address.
