Overview

life and soul

Low walls gift a spot to sit and gather, the front porch a welcoming snug, floating you amidst gorgeous native gardens and gifting views across to the Eucalypt dotted park. This stunning three bedroom, plus study home brims with life and soul, and forges a wonderful connection to deck and gardens. The home sits on a generous corner block and occupies a coveted position within the heritage loop street that is Corroboree Park. This is old Ainslie in all its glory, nudging the city, informed by the storied presence of history, the leafy delight of Walter and Marion Mahoney Griffin's garden city vision. Professionally extended and renovated in 2006 by Mary Fraser, this 1927 cottage has been artfully ushered into the here and now. It is the best of two worlds - vintage detailing alongside modern updates that deliver on space, balance and comfort. High ceilings, picture rails, and the original fireplace have been beautifully preserved. The original cottage serving up a big front living area, with dreamy garden views and lots of historical resonance. Beautiful glass doors open onto the generous family hub - modern kitchen, second living and dining space, all spilling to alfresco life amidst the tranquil garden. The big kitchen is finished in a lovely deep grey with timber notes that echo the stunning Sydney Blue Gum hardwood flooring. The original hearth has been cleverly converted into a big storage cupboard and there is a roomy walk-in-pantry. There are quality appliances and thick speckled granite worktops. Open shelving lines the front of the long return, providing space for curated display. The plan privatises a generous master suites that pushes out into the garden with big windows that capture colour and movement. A door allows you to step outside onto a private deck and relax amidst the birdsong. There is a large walk-in-robe and an oh so generous ensuite with a relaxing bathtub. The original cottage serves up two additional bedrooms, the biggest welcoming northern light and gazing toward the park. The third bedroom extends into a light-filled study with serene garden views. There is an elegant family bathroom here too, thoughtfully renovated and finished in crisp white tiling with earthy ceramic floors. The special locale places you on a quiet street, directly across from Corroboree Park. It is an easy stroll to the independent eateries, shops and bars of the dynamic Braddon precinct and a stone's throw to the CBD. The home is also handy to the popular Ainslie shops, home to a great IGA, Gastro pub and the hatted restaurant, Pilot.
