First National Newcastle City's George Rafty is marketing the four-bedroom residence at 40 Everton Street with a guide of $1.5 million to $1.6 million.

"It's a builder's residence and the builder has done a stunning renovation; the actual workmanship in it is amazing," Mr Rafty said.

"It was an original period cottage that's been grown extensively with an upstairs extension.

"It also has a separate double garage with a third space under cover and there's room for a pool if you want a pool. It caters for a large family, is a very nicely finished home and it's in a really good location in terms of walking to Beaumont Street, parks and five minutes to town. It's got a lot going for it."

There are 11-foot ceilings, an island kitchen with butler's pantry, three luxe bathrooms - two inside and one out - three separate living spaces and a covered deck with a prized northerly aspect.

The home is positioned on a north-to-rear block 494 square metres in size.
