The quaint facade of this clad Miner's Cottage gives no hint as to the sizeable contemporary renovation artfully concealed within. With every consideration made for ease of living while optimising views of the dramatic natural surroundings, the thoughtful design equally encompasses the charm of the historic original home with the luxurious comfort of the modern addition.
Cleverly centred around an expansive northeast facing alfresco entertaining area, facilitating privacy as well as tranquility: the ability to seamlessly merge indoor and outdoor living spaces makes this home the ultimate entertainer - whether thats bringing family around the barbecue or a night in with friends.
The quality finesse of the gourmet galley-style kitchen featuring stone benchtops and Miele appliances further put connection and celebration at the heart of this home, while the expansive lateral layout provides everyone with a space to call their own. The floor-to-ceiling sliding doors in the open plan living space welcome an abundance of natural light, while the polished concrete floors and voluminous raked ceilings make a statement, further underscored by the cinematic escarpment view. Those seeking a moment of separation have the alternative of the triple-aspect loft retreat with ocean view, perfect for use as a home office, playroom, or refuge.
The versatility of features such as the double street access, double garage and driveway, two large and distinct living spaces, and a master bedroom suite on ground level with its own access to the levelled garden, creates a plethora of options for utilising the space to suit the diverse needs of growing families, couples or individuals.
Those looking for the unparalleled lifestyle of the Northern Illawarra will find it here - with the iconic Scarborough Hotel and Scarborough beach a mere 5 minutes' walk, ready access to Sydney or Wollongong found at only 650m to Wombarra or Scarborough train stations, the cosmopolitan cafe culture of Thirroul Village a 10 minute drive, and just over an hour by car to the centre of Sydney - accessed over one of the most scenic roads in Australia, the singular Seacliff Bridge.
