This 1980's townhouse from award-winning architect Marshall Cook is a rare find. Good design never dates and that is especially true of this 3 bdrm, 2.5 bthrm classic, set back from the road in a boutique enclave of much admired homes.

The imprint of thoughtful design is everywhere. From the white beamed ceilings that add character and contour, to the Marshall Cook signature multi-pane windows that greet you on arrival.

The spacious and welcoming dining and lounge areas are cleverly defined, yet blend together to flow to the sunny courtyard garden, perfect for relaxed living - or entertaining friends and family.

Upstairs, the 3 large double bedrooms (master with ensuite) all feature generous wardrobes, plus there's a family sized bathroom. Distinctive design elements continue here with sliding windows in all 3 bedrooms bringing the outdoors indoors. Close-up views of the Sky Tower remind you that this city oasis is walking distance to the CBD, Viaduct Basin, Wynyard Quarter. And of course, being Freemans Bay, Ponsonby Rd is just a short stroll away.

Design classics with double internal access garaging in this premium location, are highly sought-after. Viewing is essential.
