"Bronte" a much loved and cherished home for over 30 years by its current owner has been sympathetically extended to maintain its modernist line. A unique combination of a four bedroom ensuite home and one bedroom self-contained flat provides you with an opportunity to create the home of your dreams whether it be as one expansive residence or as it currently stands. Backing onto parkland and surrounded by tall leafy trees this home with endless light is tucked away in its own private haven. You could be forgiven for thinking you were living in the country rather than the city. The home itself is very generous and has that feeling of openness with the character and charm of raked ceilings and Cypress timber flooring adding an individual touch and delightful warmth. The spacious kitchen is a real hub of the home and features a combination of reclaimed and recycled Cedar and Jarrah timber with plenty of storage and bench space catering for all. Three of the bedrooms are generous in size with a built-in robe to bedroom two. The master features an ensuite, walk-in robe, and access to a large covered front deck, providing a parent's retreat that flows into the front garden.
The glorious large separately metered flat to the back of the home has its own unique qualities and charm with the most idyllic outlook to enjoy on any given day. Bathed in light and with room to move the flat consists of an open plan kitchen, dining and living area, again making use of reclaimed and recycled features, a combined bathroom and laundry, and a huge bedroom. With its own private deck accessed from the living it provides another retreat to just sit back and relax. This is the perfect dwelling for extended or blended families, that bit of extra income or guest accommodation, depending on your needs.
Outdoors is simply divine with the most pleasant grounds and surrounds to meander through and a garden full of surprises. In addition to the home there are two separate studios in the garden, providing you with further room for a home office, workshop, rumpus room or storage space; the choice is yours. With the location being second to none you will find yourself being within just minutes of the city centre, a great choice of schools, universities, local shopping centres, Mount Ainslie and Mount Majura Nature Reserves, and all the other wonderful attractions that this sought after location offers. Looking for something different then look no further than 284 Duffy Street Ainslie.
