Elimatta Street is notable for its rows of quaint cottages, settled within serene gardens and its air of homely grace. The historic Ainslie Primary is a few steps away and the home is sited within significant landmarks - Mt Ainslie, Haig Park, Lonsdale St and Ainslie Arts Centre. This exceptional four-bedroom, heritage cottage, has been extended and updated to offer luxurious open plan living with elegant master wing, flowing to the sunny deck. An easy stroll to the enticements of the Braddon precinct and on the edge of the city, yet the home is whisper quiet, rich in soulful, period details and superbly considered. Meticulously landscaped by Beracah Gardens, it also enjoys the distinction of a self-contained flat with paved street access.
The iconic red brick form, enclosed by mature hedges on all sides remains true to the famous Walter Burly and Marion Mahoney Griffin original garden city plan. Immaculately laid paths of flagstones and slate, wend and curve, ushering past beds of verdant plantings, lush lawns, mixed hedging. A seating stage, dappled with soft light, is a wonderful private nook for quiet reflection. A deep porch, inviting and shady, completes the charming entry sequence.
The rich timber floorboards - a combination of the original kauri pine and brush box - contrast beautifully with the neutral palette, soaring white ceilings and large timber windows. An open fireplace with mantle, makes a wonderful focal and gathering point, finished with ornate plaster work and picture rails.
Two peaceful bedrooms, all with timber windows and draped by soft textiles, share vistas to trees. Both rooms centre around a large, crisp white, family bathroom with skylight and soaking tub.
The open expanse of the living, dining, kitchen draws light from the north and west. A study nook occupies a discreet corner, and an impressive galley style kitchen is set to one side.
Featuring a large island bench, stone bench-tops, integrated dishwasher and clever storage this central hub is a delight for the creative home chef.
The master bedroom is located to the rear and offers a walk-in-robe and modern bathroom with soft green glass, tiling. French doors open to elevated deck, and outlook to Japanese maple, strappy lomandra and avenue of dwarf magnolia.
Paving leads beyond the carport to a hidden utility area and onward to the private garden self-contained flat. Complete with kitchen, bathroom, laundry facilities, separate bedroom and front gated access, this is a versatile space and could easily be utilised for multi-generational living, teen retreat, guests, studio, office or Airbnb.
