New Lambton, Newcastle's Answer to the Hollywood Hills

As promised here are some snaps of some of what I consider some of Newcastle's underrated beauties. I took these on one of my leisurely strolls, this time through New Lambton and New Lambton Heights.

Very Hollywood Regency, this Inter-War Mediterranean house is a well known house by most Novocastrians.


Another very well known house, this Inter-War Old English house is hard to photograph due to its rather dominating yet rather appealing ivy covered brick boundary wall. Coined in the 1930's as 'Stockbroker Tudor' to identify a brand of brashly eclectic domestic architecture favoured by the nouveaux rich

This International style house actually sits beautifully with neighbours of venacular style. It's a little faded but still so smart, and imitated widely.

New Lambton and its Heights houses have amazing gardens, lush and well kept.
