THE DEAL
Capturing the very essence of its original coastal cottage ambience through a sumptuous contemporary reimagining, this gorgeous bungalow is nestled amid a landscape-designed garden oasis by renowned Inspired Exteriors in the leafy heart of Freshwater.
An enchanting, relatively low-maintenance sanctuary for families or empty nesters, it occupies a private, near-level 404.7sqm parcel, with sublime irrigated gardens unfolding in layers of texture and tropical greenery. A circular lawn separates the covered entertainers' deck from a pebbled fire pit area with timber bench seating, while a magnificent rear cabana with overhead heating and a wet bar incorporating a built-in barbecue promises year-round outdoor enjoyment.
Set behind a gated white picket fence and lush gardens, the residence showcases a panelled façade and carport. An elegant portico introduces interiors where the cottage's easy, unhurried character has been preserved and quietly elevated, with light, proportion and refined finishes enhancing the appeal of effortless single-level living.
A sleek open-plan stone kitchen appointed with an induction cooktop, Siemens oven, microwave and stainless-steel dishwasher overlooks the living and dining space. Glass sliders open to an expansive rear entertainers' deck, crowned by a rain-sensor Vergola roof and flanked by retractable shade blinds.
A separate media lounge provides a peaceful retreat, while the generous bedrooms feature mirrored built-in wardrobes. The main bedroom boasts a new travertine-look ensuite, complemented by a modern main bathroom with a separate shower and bath.
High ceilings, timber parquetry and hybrid flooring, and plantation shutters add warmth and character, while air conditioning, ceiling fans and a gas heating outlet ensure seasonal comfort.
Superbly positioned in a highly coveted, quiet leafy street, it is footsteps to St John the Baptist Primary School, Jacka Park and express city bus services, a five-minute stroll to Harbord Public School and cosmopolitan Freshwater Village, and just over a 10-minute walk to Freshwater Beach.
SEALS THE DEAL
Enjoy effortless single-level living where modern comfort meets coastal charm, with a private Zen-inspired garden sanctuary offering sublime tranquillity and superb alfresco entertaining, all within an easy stroll of parks, schools, village eateries, buses and the beach.
