Perched at the crest of The Hill in one of the area's most historic enclaves, this terrace home is a rare find. Its pretty fa?ade, adorned with intricate cast iron lacework, is complemented by a lush cottage garden that invites you in. On entry, you're immediately struck by the sense of space, light, and airiness that fills every room.
The home's perfect blend of period charm and well-planned contemporary design brings cast iron fireplaces, pressed metal ceilings, and ornate plasterwork to life, while honey-toned timber floors enhance the home's welcoming atmosphere.
Passing the third bedroom on the main level, you enter a pretty dining room with French doors leading to an east-facing courtyard ? the perfect spot for your morning coffee. A thoughtful extension by Bourne & Blue connects the spacious kitchen and lounge, with floor-to-ceiling windows and high-set windows framing the stunning north-facing light ? pouring into the heart of the home throughout the seasons. The custom kitchen is expansive, offering generous bench space, abundant storage, and a layout designed for ease, while the adjoining lounge features glass stacker doors opening to a patio and a lovingly crafted, low-maintenance native garden. A Euro laundry and powder room complete the practical features on this level.
Upstairs, two more spacious bedrooms await. The master bedroom features a decorative pressed metal ceiling and a delightful north-facing verandah adorned with iron lacework, while the second bedroom includes built-in storage and offers lovely views over the district. The main bathroom is a sanctuary in itself, with a deep bath, separate shower, twin sinks, and a window that frames views of the coastline ? a peaceful backdrop for your daily rituals.
Back outside, the inviting entertaining space is rare in the inner city. It's a lovely spot to sit at the top of the world with lush gardens at your feet and a panoramic view stretching over the historic neighbourhood all the way to Mount Sugarloaf and the Watagans. A further bonus is secure off-street parking with right of way and electric gate, along with a garden shed and clothesline discreetly tucked away at the bottom of the garden.
