Sprawling residence up for grabs in Nightcliff
A modern residence with rooftop deck, bar and sea views is going to auction this month in a sought after pocket of Nightcliff.
The five-bedroom home at 6 Rankin St, Nightcliff, sits on fully-fenced 748sq m block with in-ground pool and established landscaping.
Selling agent Andrew Harding, of Ray White Darwin, said this property was one of the best homes on Rankin St, with the Nightcliff coastline just moments from the front door.
He said the architecturally-designed home was brimming with quality, from its solid steel construction and core-filled block to its insulated-for-sound layout.
The house is spread across two levels with open living spaces, easy flow between indoors and out, and a triple-car garage with workshop, airconditioning, generator output and plumbing.
On the ground floors there is a sprawling open plan living, dining and kitchen area opening through concertina doors to the back deck and backyard.
The kitchen has an island bench, stone benchtops, soft-close cabinetry, premium appliances, and an Insinkerator.
The downstairs living space also has a plumbed bar with built-in fridges.
There is a study with ensuite and fold away bed, a laundry, and a second bathroom easily accessed from the pool on this level.
An atrium style staircase leads to the upper level where there is bamboo flooring and a living area with kitchenette and balcony.
The master bedroom has a private balcony, a walk-in robe and an ensuite with dual vanity and twin shower.
The three remaining bedrooms have built-in robes and balcony access, while the family bathroom has a bath and separate shower.
The rooftop entertaining area is spacious with views across the neighbourhood greenery.
The downstairs alfresco space looks out over the pool area, which includes a pool deck with Bali swing.
The home has Daiken airconditioning, Crimsafe, solar power and three phase power.
The property is close to schools and shops, and an easy stroll to the Nightcliff beach, foreshore and jetty.

Collingwood: ‘The Lamington' pad's red hot auction result
An ultra-cool Collingwood apartment known as the Lamington has smashed expectations after selling for more than $1m on Saturday. The two-bedroom home at 3F/68 Oxford St with red tiles, metals and glass throughout was advertised with a $900,000-$950,000 asking range. Short-listed for an Australian Institute of Architects' interiors award, the warehouse conversion is located within a factory complex that formerly belonged to one of Australia's first department store chains, Foy & Gibson. The apartment's owner commissioned architectural practice Rexroth Mannasmann Collective to transform its shell into an eclectic abode with a wall of tall windows, 3.6m-high steel-trussed ceilings and polished hardwood floorboards. A horizontal red line features on many of the walls including in the open-plan living and dining area is much like a strip of jam inside a lamington – contributing to the apartment's unofficial name. There's also a central pod within the home containing a laundry and bathroom. One of the pod's walls has a flip-top desk and foldaway bed. The residence has been featured in both Vogue Living and the Architectural Review magazines. Jellis Craig inner north partner Simon Shrimpton said a $900,000 bid started the auction as three bidders competed for the 'very cool' apartment. It was placed on the market at $950,000 and ended up fetching $1.025m. 'The apartment sold a young couple from Fitzroy and the underbidders were a couple downsizing from the eastern suburbs,' Mr Shrimpton said. 'The couple who bought were very excited, they were the first to inquire and the first ones through the door at the first open for inspection,' Mr Shrimpton said. 'They were absolutely in love with the place and all the design aspects and nuances it has.' Mr Shrimpton said that for inner Melbourne apartments, well-designed homes with stylish flair tended to attract a lot of interest. 'Bespoke, architecturally-designed apartments are few and far between and when they are offered to the market, buyers will always line up to compete for them,' he added. Also on Saturday, a double-fronted, Victorian-era house at 1 Peel St, Newport, sold for $1.21m. The three-bedroom house, in need of some work including replastering, had a $1.05m reserve. The Agency property partners Leigh Melbourne and Noah Lautman-Wurt had the listing. Mr Melbourne said that a young couple from the western suburbs purchased the property, out of three bidders. 'The bidding was fast and furious,' Mr Melbourne said. He noted that homes at Peel St's bottom end, near The Strand in Williamstown, did not often come up for sale. 'In my 25 years covering the area, it's the second property I have sold down here,' he said. Mr Lautman-Wurt said the auction started with a $1m bid, with a buyer's advocate and family among the underbidders.

Western United given 14 days to pay overdue wages or run risk of losing players
Western United has again been served with breach notices by a host of the A-League club's players over unpaid wages. It's the second time in two months that United has been issued breach notices by disgruntled players, who were also forced to endure late pay in May. United had 14 days from Friday to make the payments. If the club fails to meet the deadline, players will be entitled to leave to the club, regardless of their contract status. A club spokesman said United was in 'constant communication with all players' and was working 'closely with the PFA (Professional Footballers Australia) and the APL (Australian Professional Leagues) to ensure this is addressed in the coming days'. Earlier in the week, United officials had been confident the club's proposed new majority backers – KAM Melbourne – would have paid the players and staff their overdue wages by Friday. A pitch fit for the European champions 😉🤩 The @FIFACWC is underway with the Rose Bowl in perfect condition for @PSG_inside and @atletienglish yesterday thanks to our groundsman, Justin Lang ðŸ'�ðŸ'š — Western United FC (@wufcofficial) June 17, 2025 However, the money wasn't forthcoming, leading some players issuing breach notices via PFA. KAM Melbourne, a subsidiary of KAM Sports, was last month announced as financially embattled United's new controlling stakeholders. However, the deal is yet to be approved by the APL, which runs the A-League. PFA chief executive officer Beau Busch earlier this week said United's players and staff were 'victims of a governance model that is not fit for purpose, and where FA (Football Australia) and the APL appear unwilling to enforce their own regulations'. 'The professionalism of the Western United players and staff in the most trying conditions is a testament to their character and commitment to Australian football,' Busch said. 'The players (have been) left to fight for their most basic entitlement as employees. We will continue to ensure the players have access to the full resources of the PFA.'

15 leafy suburbs young Aussies can afford
The dream of living in a blue-chip suburb is still in reach for younger Australians if they're willing to trade in a house for a unit, fresh data from real estate titan Ray White has revealed. While house prices remain at astronomical levels across much of the country's prime real estate, the gap in price between houses and units is wide enough in a host of up-market suburbs to make unit living affordable for first-home buyers. In Melbourne's iconic Hawthorn South, characterised by its vast patchwork of cafes, restaurants, heritage-listed buildings and elegant park spaces, median house prices are at $2.48m, but units are priced at $560,368, a massive $1.92m difference in cost. In Sydney's Homebush, which sits adjacent to the iconic Sydney Markets and Bicentennial Park, houses are priced at $2.24m, while units are priced at $677,393, for a $1.56m gap. Brisbane's riverside Hamilton, adorned with swanky Queenslanders and opulent modernist structures, houses go for $2.26m while units are listed at $717,358. 15 Blue Chip Suburbs for First Home Buyers Ray White chief economist Nerida Conisbee told NewsWire apartments offered Australians in their 20s and 30s a chance to live in suburbs with 'better amenity' as houses move beyond reach. 'To get an apartment, you might be closer to good retail precincts, better public transport, closer to your work,' she said. 'Also potentially to family and friends. I think this is one of the challenges a lot of younger people have. 'They may have grown up in an area but when they are looking to buy now, it's really expensive, but in some areas, there are definitely apartments available at a much more affordable price.' Ms Conisbee added solving Australia's affordability crisis would entail a greater shift to apartment living, even as builders continue to pump out four-bedroom homes that exceed the size of many emerging families. 'Australia is very unusual globally in that we have incredibly low densities,' she said. There's a massive gap in median house and unit prices for Melbourne's tram-lined Hawthorn suburb. Supplied Credit: Supplied 'If you have a look at every other major city and even much smaller cities, they do have very high levels of high densities. 'We can't provide affordable housing in areas that have incredible amenity if we stick to the big homes in the future.' Every major city shows savings of at least $500,000 with an apartment buy over a house. In Adelaide's Walkerville, a tree-lined inner-north suburb, houses sit at $1.6m, while units are going for $604,328, a saving of nearly a million dollars. In Perth's beachside Mosman Park, houses are priced at $2.51m, while units are priced at $551,561, a near $2m difference. In Darwin's Larrakeyah, houses are $1.45m while units are $440,907. Ray White chief economist Nerida Conisbee says the kind of up-market amenity in leafy city suburbs are still within reach for first-home buyers. Supplied Credit: Supplied In Canberra's Reid, houses are $2.19m, while units are $617,050. Queensland's glittery Gold Coast, however, shows a smaller gap between house and unit prices compared to other major cities. In Southport, houses are $1.05m, while units are $637,051, for a $410,669 gap. Regional cities in popular coastal locations also present substantial gaps between house and unit prices. In the Sunshine Coast's Buderim suburb, which borders the Maroochydore and Mooloolaba beaches north of Brisbane, houses are priced at $1.3m, while units are going for $732,921. In Port Douglas, a Coral Sea town in Queensland's far north that faces out to the Great Barrier Reef, houses are listed at $1.71m, while units are $490,372.
