A contemporary upgrade to a classic cottage has seen this Highgate haven renovated, extended and rendered to present to new owners the wonderful combination of light and bright generous living spaces within a concise footprint and easy-care garden.
On entry, the English garden flowers and greenery ushers you to the front door, where you are greeted by the lofty 11ft ceilings and hardwood parquetry floor leading down the wide hallway.
The expansive main Bedroom with ensuite, built-in-robes and reverse cycle air conditioner, has been generously extended with a bay window that spans the width of the room, allowing the light and colours of the English garden to spill through during the day whilst the plantation shutters provide warmth and privacy during the evenings. A further two bedrooms of significant proportions, one with built-in-robes, run to the right of the hall and to the left is the conveniently located European bathroom and laundry, intelligently combined to cater for a range of buyer needs.
Venturing to the end of the hallway you discover where 10 North Terrace Highgate comes into its own with the delightful open-plan kitchen, dining and living area that embraces the manicured garden view through the near floor to ceiling windows, providing an invigorating backdrop of garden green to compliment the fresh light living space inside.
The elegant and timeless kitchen presents Caesar stone benchtops and five burner Westinghouse gas cooktop and electric oven and Bosch dishwasher to cater for every culinary requirement. An impressive breakfast bar caters for family and friends to connect over casually, whilst the integrated dining and living spaces ensure that connection continues over meals or unwinding at the end of the day.
The North facing rear garden flourishes after years of thoughtful plant selection and care and now presents a wonderful low maintenance outdoor space to be enjoyed, framed by the impressive rear Ficus hedge, the groomed lawn and the billowing Bougainvillea draped over the outdoor studio and entertaining area. The Studio, currently an art space and sewing room, could become a fourth bedroom or work from home office space.
As an Eastern Suburbs destination location, Highgate is hard to surpass and 10 North Terrace will appeal to families, downsizers and astute investors alike, one not to miss.
