Tucked away in one of South Katoomba's most accessible streets, this beautifully established property & unique home, offers a rare combination of character, privacy and flexibility, with a peaceful garden setting just moments from the best of Katoomba.
This home adds an everyday convenience, with a short drive to the local Schools and Katoomba Railway Station and is within the Catchment of Katoomba Public School and Katoomba High School.
Set behind established landscaping, the home feels private and welcoming from the moment you arrive. Well cared for and full of warmth and nostalgia, this light-filled residence combines classic character with practical spaces designed for comfortable everyday living.
It has retained much of its character, with Slow combustion fireplaces (House and Studio).
Natural light is a standout feature, with three skylights throughout the home enhancing the bright and airy interiors. The light-filled sunroom overlooks the rear gardens, creating a wonderful second living space and a peaceful place to enjoy the changing seasons.
The main residence offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms, with a warm and inviting living area centered around a slow-combustion fireplace, complemented by gas and electric heating.
The character-filled kitchen features mosaic-tiled benchtops, French-style window cabinetry, gas cooking, a Smeg oven, rangehood and a large skylight, while the adjoining laundry and bathroom continue the home's distinctive style with French doors and extensive cabinetry.
Outside, the beautifully landscaped Japanese-inspired gardens create a tranquil sanctuary, with stone features, a Japanese rock fish pond and private courtyard providing a wonderful connection between the home and garden. With no lawns to maintain, the grounds are both visually appealing and wonderfully easy-care.
A SEPARATE SPACE WITH ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES..
Adding exceptional versatility is the detached Studio/Office retreat, complete with its own kitchenette and bathroom facilities. Ideal as a teenager's retreat, home office, creative studio or additional living space for the Family, it provides valuable separation from the main home.
