Set on one of Reservoir’s most prestigious pockets, this stunning period residence at 1 Northernhay Street marries timeless character with generous contemporary comfort. Framed by a gorgeous, landscaped front garden, the home welcomes you with a wide, graceful entry, soaring ceilings, and engineered timber floors that carry sunlight from every angle.
Designed for togetherness, the expansive open-plan kitchen, meals, and family/living zone invites effortless daily living and memorable entertaining. Three generous ground-floor bedrooms include two with built-in robes and one with a walk-in robe, complemented by a large study, an updated central family bathroom with bath, a second bathroom, and a well-appointed laundry.
Ascend the timber staircase to a private retreat: a spacious lounge and an oversized bedroom featuring a walk-in robe and ensuite - an ideal parents’ sanctuary or luxurious guest haven.
Outdoors, a sun-drenched backyard sets the scene for year-round enjoyment with an undercover alfresco area, fire pit setting for cosy nights, and a charming side rockery pathway. The big, powered garage - styled with rustic warmth - has been converted into an inspiring multipurpose space with wood fire box, perfect as a music room or intimate sitting room, evoking the ambience of a Spanish hillside hideaway. A long, wide driveway with extended carport easily accommodates multiple vehicles for abundant off-street parking.
