It is an admired property in one of Newcastle's most prestigious locations and attracted plenty of out-of-town and local interest when it sold for $3.825 million last year within three weeks of hitting the market.
Now the gorgeous Victorian Italianate residence overlooking King Edward Park at 30 The Terrace on The Hill has been listed by Jesse Wilton and Mark Kentwell, of PRDnationwide Newcastle Lake Macquarie, with a guide of $3.7 million to $4 million and enquiry has already been strong again.
"We've been flooded with interest, local and from Sydney," Mr Wilton said. "It's been very well received.
"It's probably the most liveable layout in one of the best streets in Newcastle - that's what's drawn the interest. It is highly functional and has new world charm on the old frame."
