CHARACTER & CONTEMPORARY. CLOSE TO CITY WITH VIEWS

LIFESTYLE & LOCATION. A COMMUTERS DREAM. WALK TO BIRKENHEAD
Testament to the quality of the home and location, we release this exciting property after 28 years of proud ownership. Architecturally designed with creativity and flair in 1977, this striking three-bedroom, board and batten home enjoys a casual and understated elegance, fastidiously maintained and beautifully renovated, with careful attention to detail and style.

The raked high-stud ceilings with rustic beams and rafters give a feeling of space and timeless character, with the spacious open-plan lounge, dining, and modern kitchen flowing seamlessly outdoors via double-paned French doors to a covered courtyard and privately fenced, parklike grounds and garden. Perfect for alfresco dining for long summer evenings. Well set back, this is a sanctuary for busy lives, or one can escape to the tranquility of Le Roys Bush waterfalls, native flora, and tracks to Little Shoal Bay and Northcote Pt - the entrance just 2 mins walk away.

Other design features include two generous double-sized bedrooms on the ground floor, a combined bathroom with new stone vanity, storage, and a concealed laundry. A covered rear lean-to leads to a tree-lined garden. Off-street parking plus a lockup garage with a workshop, capable of further development into an office, studio, or sleepout.

Upstairs, the super-sized master bedroom with a classical mezzanine window runs full-length, enjoying captivating views back to the City and Sky Tower - a restful zone and an escape for parents day or night, with easy work-from-home capability.

When location and time in your day are important, regular fast-track buses connect to the City within minutes or a 10-min drive off-peak by car. Highbury is walking distance, unlocking a metro lifestyle with retail, leisure centre facilities, cafes & restaurants. For schooling, imagine the ease of having Northcote College just down the road.

Properties of this calibre are unique and seldom available. Act with haste to secure.
