About Hamilton East

Hamilton East is the quieter residential half of Hamilton, tucked behind the Beaumont Street dining strip and close to Broadmeadow station. It's mostly Federation and inter-war cottages on tree-lined streets.

It trades on walkability—Beaumont Street's restaurants and bars, the train line, and Newcastle Showground—without the price tag of the coastal suburbs.
