About this property

Flagstaff Harbourfront Escape – Balcony, Views, Free Parking & Walk Everywhere

Flagstaff offers the ultimate seaside getaway, superbly positioned opposite historic Fort Scratchley and just moments from Newcastle’s premier attractions. This north-facing, top-floor apartment features breathtaking 180-degree views over the working harbour, Nobbys Beach and the headland—best enjoyed from the light-filled living area or the sheltered private balcony.



Inside, the apartment exudes calm coastal charm with soft blue tones, plush carpet, and an inviting open-plan layout. A renovated kitchen with modern appliances makes meals easy, while air conditioning ensures year-round comfort.



Ideal for couples, friends, or small families, the apartment includes a queen bedroom and a second bedroom with two extra-long single beds. A neat bathroom and handy internal laundry facilities add convenience for longer stays.



Guests love the unbeatable location—walk to Nobbys Beach, the breakwall, Foreshore Park, and harbourside cafés, bars and restaurants. An allocated car space adds extra ease in this premium harbourside area, and motorsport fans especially appreciate the balcony’s incredible vantage point during the Supercars event.



With full private access, beautiful coastal views, and everything you need within a short walk, Flagstaff is the perfect base to experience Newcastle’s vibrant seaside lifestyle.

Why they chose this property

Newcastle is a vibrant coastal city where working harbour, surf beaches and café culture all sit side by side. Just over 30 minutes from Lake Macquarie and about two hours from Sydney, it’s an easy add-on to a lakeside or beach stay, or a great day trip during longer holidays. Beautiful beaches and iconic ocean baths – Newcastle is lined with sandy beaches like Nobbys, Newcastle Beach, Bar Beach and Merewether, all popular for swimming and surfing. The city is also famous for its heritage ocean baths, offering guests a unique place to swim in sheltered seawater pools with stunning ocean views. Walkable coastal city – Guests can follow the coastal walkway and Anzac Memorial Walk along the clifftops, wander the harbour foreshore, and explore cool laneways and street art – all easily accessible on foot from the CBD and beaches. Food, bars and coffee with a local feel – Newcastle has a growing food and bar scene, with small cafés, wine bars and restaurants clustered around the harbour, Honeysuckle precinct and inner-city suburbs like Cooks Hill and Darby Street, known locally as “eat street.” Arts, culture and history – From the Newcastle Museum and regional art gallery to heritage buildings around the harbour, there’s plenty for guests who want a mix of history and culture between beach visits. Gateway to the Hunter and Lake Macquarie – Newcastle makes a great base for day trips north to Port Stephens and its sand dunes, west to the Hunter Valley wineries, or south to the lakes, beaches and bushwalks of Lake Macquarie. Laid-back vibe – Visitors love that Newcastle offers ocean views, a harbour, beaches, coastal walks and good public transport like a mini-Sydney, but with fewer crowds and a much more relaxed pace.
