Property SOLD prior to auction.
This meticulously renovated and extended sandstone villa of four bedrooms is the perfect blend of old world charm with the best of contemporary design and amenity.
Much cherished by the present owners it is offered to market for the first time in 95 years!
Situated in the heart of this blue chip suburb in a wide tree-lined avenue, the delightful villa radiates magnetic street appeal, poised in landscaped grounds behind an elegant wrought iron fence with inviting double gate.
The rooms of the original villa have preserved character features including leadlight, Baltic flooring, decorative high ceilings and cornices, fireplace and arched hallway.
A high level modern family room extension incorporates a brilliant gourmet kitchen with copious storage, quality cabinetry, Miele stainless appliances, induction cooktop, and rich granite benchtops. The kitchen holds a commanding view over the family room, an intimate informal meals area and into the soothing landscape of the brilliant back courtyard.
Two renovated bathrooms provide total flexibility for families to avoid the morning rush.
Keen entertainers will revel in the spacious paved pavilion in at the rear of the home, which can open up with a wood panelled tilt-a-door to the lined double garage to form the most sophisticated venue for large scale events.
The garage (accessed from rear lane) forms part of a stunning architecturally designed stone fronted coach-house building. This recent addition to the property also houses a large stylish and ultra modern studio room which was cleverly designed and built with appropriate plumbing and services to allow simple conversion to an apartment for family members (STCC).
The sound-proofed and r.c. airconditioned studio room is currently fitted out as a high quality hobbyist’s timber workshop but if woodwork or an apartment are not to your taste, it is ready for use by artists, musicians, hobbyists, vintage car enthusiasts, or simply a sound proofed playroom for the kids.
