In the present article, we have obtained an exact analytical solution of six-dimensional pure Gauss–Bonnet gravity in the presence of both NUT and Maxwell charges. The topology of the horizon is chosen to be the product of two 2-spheres. Upon evaluating the solution, we study the spacetime properties, such as the event horizon and singularity, and obtain the ranges of parameter space where the solution is valid. We discuss how the presence of Maxwell charges may impact the solution’s asymptotic expansion and what distinctive effects it will bring to the geometry. The thermodynamic properties of the solution are also discussed, emphasizing the interplay between NUT and Maxwell charges.
