Modernist mid-century dream brought to life at Belmont

A MODERNIST mid-century home with all the characteristics of the popular architectural style has hit the market in Lake Macquarie.

The home has many original features throughout, including exposed Oregon timber beams and western red cedar feature walls in the living rooms.

The perfectly styled residence at 27 Greenwood Avenue, Belmont was purchased a decade ago by owners James Craft, a Newcastle-based residential architect, and his school teacher husband Matthew Perkins who instantly recognised the potential the home had to offer despite its shabby appearance.
