There are plenty of new apartments popping up around Newcastle but Joanna Cook is expecting one built circa 1950 and featuring an "affordable" price tag to prove popular. Ms Cook and Scott Purnell, of Dalton Partners, are marketing a top-floor apartment above well-known Jim's Milk Bar in Hamilton. The property at 8/79 Tudor Street, Hamilton is positioned within footsteps of Beaumont Street cafes and restaurants and within close proximity to Newcastle CBD. It has a guide of $390,000 to $410,000 and inspections are by appointment only. Related content: Ms Cook described it as "one of the best listings for young people we have seen for a long time". "What young person or couple wouldn't want to live in a spacious, New York-style unit in the heart of Hamilton," she said. "It's two big bedrooms and it has that New York, loft-style feel to it. It sits up above the street and has lovely high ceilings, beautiful hardwood timber floors and picture windows. Every room has big windows that let the light in. "When you look at what you get in terms of a modern apartment, there's very little that you could buy for that. And some of those new apartments, you would fit two of into the floor space of this one floor. They're tiny and are selling well over $400,000." The Dalton Partners duo are also selling a two-bedroom terrace at 25 Hargrave Street in Carrington that they say is "well priced to sell" at $615,950. "There are two big bedrooms and the possibility of a third one downstairs if you don't want a second living area," Ms Cook said. "You could turn that formal lounge into another bedroom. It's got a lovely courtyard and Hargrave Street is a lovely wide, tree-lined street. It has a village atmosphere and you're a few minutes into the CBD."
