Newcastle and the inner suburbs

Based in Merewether, working right across the inner ring. Pick your suburb to see what Jake does around your way, or just give him a call.

My home base. Beachside period homes and bungalows that owners renovate rather than leave.

Tightly held period homes near the shops. High-end renovations done sympathetically.

Elevated, view-driven homes. Second storeys and decks built to capture the water.

Heritage terraces and workers cottages near Darby Street. Sympathetic, facade-keeping renos.

Federation and interwar homes near Beaumont Street. Knock-throughs for open-plan living.

Interwar and post-war family homes. Bathrooms, kitchens and extensions for growing families.

Weatherboard cottages and post-war homes. Rear extensions and decks for indoor-outdoor living.

Post-war brick homes on bigger blocks. Extensions and granny flats that use the space.

Mixed housing on larger blocks. Granny flats for rental income and family extensions.

Weatherboard workers cottages, steadily gentrifying. Old weatherboard to modern renos.

Heritage cottages and Federation homes near the park. Period-sympathetic renovations.

Grand period homes and terraces over the harbour. Heritage-sensitive, high-end work.

The oldest pocket in the city. Heritage cottages and terraces on tight beachside blocks.

Not on the list? Newcastle and the inner suburbs, near enough. If you're not sure we cover your spot, just ask.
