Simon Wall, of McGrath Newcastle City, has recorded what he believes is a record sale for a duplex in Adamstown.
He sold the home of George and Tina Walker at 55A Lockyer Street for $960,000.
The Torrens title, four-bedroom home was built in 2011 and had an award-winning alfresco area with a jacuzzi.
RESERVE AT REAR
Size and location, backing onto bush reserve in Adamstown Heights, are expected to prove the key appeal of 18 Kempwood Close which has been listed for sale for the first time in nearly 20 years.
The multi-level home has five bedrooms, three bathrooms, an upstairs parents retreat and a swimming pool and rear timder deck.
Ray White’s Teresa Heighington has an open scheduled for 10am Saturday and a price guide is yet to be disclosed.
