Set back from the road and kept private behind established trees and a picket fence, this stunning quintessential story book cottage is positioned in one of South Leura's finest streets. A rare offering, the house and studio are perfectly positioned to take advantage of the open design of the stunning garden by allowing for large outdoor areas giving a sense of space, with the northern sun bathing both buildings in natural light and sun in winter.
Its striking facade takes your breath away, as do the interiors, with 10ft high ceilings, ornate cornices and ceiling roses, wide hard wood timber flooring, solid timber doors and the 8 newly installed double glazed skylights. There are two bedrooms to the front of the home, both with ensuite bathrooms, open fireplaces and french doors that lead out onto the front covered verandah. The country style eat-in kitchen offers plenty of storage and ample bench space to make for easy preparation and serving of food. The cosy living room features a gas fireplace and is filled with natural light through the many skylights and picture windows, which perfectly frame the garden vistas.
Walking up the winding paved hedge-lined path, you arrive at the beautifully presented studio, privately positioned, and surrounded by lush established gardens, showcasing a large living space with kitchenette, bathroom with combined laundry space and a separate loft bedroom upstairs.
This unique property is within walking distance to Leura cafés, galleries, public transport, world Heritage national parks, and bush walks and lookouts such as pool of Siloam, Gordon Falls, Olympian Rock, Bridal Falls and Leura Cascades.
