A rare showcase of timeless character so close to the CBD, 1 Rokeby Avenue reveals a remarkable 1910 Sandstone Villa sweeping across a deceptively spacious 6-bedroom footprint courtesy of its seamless second-storey addition and superbly extended open-plan entertaining. Achieving a high-functioning family haven that blends quintessential classic feature - from soaring ceilings and polished hardwood floors, gorgeous original fireplaces and beautiful leadlight windows, and long-list of modern inclusions… this stunning residence is best experienced in person.
Providing wonderfully versatile sleeping options for established families to settle straight into, as well as options to customise with a dedicated home office option, while heads of the household embrace upstairs peace and privacy with their own master suite and lofty lounge catching hints of Hills' views, such a customisable footprint wrapped up in character grandeur is every bit the coveted find in the blue-ribbon inner-east.
Poised for effortless wining and dining, the marble-topped chef's zone lets the family chef serve, scan and socialise across this light-spilling space, as French doors open to a sweeping outdoor alfresco area overlooking neat leafy gardens, sun-dappled lawns and leafy feature trees for an indoor-outdoor experience of impeccable hosting ease. Together with powerful ducted AC throughout, 2 bathrooms/3 toilets, large laundry, and secure tandem carport behind a charming picket-fence frontage - claiming such incredible feature, function and form in Norwood's tightly held borders is an opportunity not to let slip through your fingers.
