Just moments from the golden sands of Merewether Beach and the legendary Ocean Baths, this beautifully restored residence places you at the heart of Newcastle’s most coveted coastal lifestyle. Wander to vibrant cafés, boutique shopping, and acclaimed dining precincts with ease, then return home to your own private sanctuary of calm and refinement.
Welcome to Merewether House — a landmark 1910 residence where heritage elegance meets contemporary coastal luxury. Behind its timeless façade lies a thoughtfully curated 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home, rich with character and elevated by modern sophistication. Soaring ceilings, intricate period detailing, and expansive sun-drenched windows create an atmosphere of grandeur and warmth, inviting you to slow down and savour every moment.
In the cooler months, the home comes alive with warmth and atmosphere — curl up by the gas fireplaces in the main living room, surrounded by designer furnishings including a striking rug and exquisite Catherine Martin textiles that add a touch of theatrical elegance.
During the warner season, unwind beside the sparkling plunge pool or linger on the outdoor terrace, where long afternoons melt into golden-hour cocktails beneath the coastal sky. Inside, multiple living spaces offer comfort and charm, from plush lounge rooms anchored by inviting fireplaces to an intimate dining nook perfectly positioned for sunset glow.
The gourmet kitchen is a true centrepiece fitted with marble finishes, premium appliances, and everything needed to create memorable meals with ease and style.
Retreat upstairs to beautifully appointed bedrooms dressed in soft linens and sumptuous bedding, designed for deep rest and indulgent comfort. The bathrooms offer a spa-like escape, complete with generous soaking baths, bubbles provided for the ultimate winter unwind.
For something truly special, ascend to the turret and take in sweeping views stretching from the city skyline to the ocean horizon — the perfect vantage point for sunrise coffees or sunset reflections.
Merewether House is ideal for families, couples, or corporate stays seeking a refined coastal escape. It is also perfectly suited for bridal parties and wedding guests looking for elegant, convenient accommodation. Micro-weddings may be considered upon request with host approval.
A rare blend of heritage soul and coastal sophistication — Merewether House offers an unforgettable stay in one of Newcastle’s most iconic homes.

Outside this period, use is at guests’ risk, with minimal maintenance; leaves or debris may accumulate, and light upkeep may be needed.
