JUST OPENED FOR INSPECTION
Practically a BRAND NEW HOUSE
Prestigious, sought after, Barra Brui, St. Ives, nestled between East Killara and Gordon.
"Aurora", situated on high side of the Street facing Garigal National Park you will never be built out.
Houses in this part of the street tightly held, generally over 40+ years. First time on market in 35 years.
Design and Quality
The design, with the house facing due north with walls of glass; with high ceilings, and interesting spaces filled with light, brings joy and creative stimulation. "Architects can improve how people live in the spaces they have" (Ben Gerstel).
"Aurora" is a 1980 Contemporary by Habitat, renowned Architects & Builders.
Quality construction with Western Red Cedar, Tasmanian Oak and a replacement roof of Terracotta Tiles which the Roofer referred to as "the Prince of Tiles". Solid Cedar Credenza in Lounge Room which accommodates sound equipment and speakers.
You look up to the House and it blends with the sky and is particularly pleasing at dawn and dusk. A specially designed colour to blend with the sky and bring out the cool whites and blues of the bricks to supersede the "mission brown" of that era.
Economical
Only a top Architect can get the roof line perfect so that it shades in summer and warms in winter.
Sit on the expansive verandahs enjoying the easterly breeze from Middle Harbour which comes in like clockwork at 3.20 p.m. every afternoon; and where in winter, the sun drops below the roof line and you can sunbathe all year round.
With the judicious closing and shutting of doors and blinds you hardly ever need to use the Brand New Reverse Cycle Air Conditioners or put on the lights.
Ease of Living & Flexible Floor Plan
The entertainment areas are separate from family living and each room can be closed-off.
Flexible floor plan in regard to living spaces and 3 or 4 Double Bedrooms and a smaller bedroom accommodating a single bed with a trundle alongside. All bedrooms have built-in wardrobes.
Healthy Living without Even Trying
Current owner told her body was 15 years younger than her 80 years and she has never been to a gym in her life!
If you do like gyms, however, a brand new, state of the art gym is available five minutes walk away at St. Ives High School.
Barra Brui Oval is at the top of the street a challenging walk where the renowned Barra Brui Pre-School and Kindergarten is located.
Also here you will find the entrance to one of many, natural, bush-land walks along the stream in the valley opposite the house.
Sit on your expansive verandahs, enjoying the star-filled night sky and the hoot of the owl and cast away the worries of the day as you enjoy the quiet, calm environment.
Make Friends with Your Resident Native Wild Life
Wally the Rock Wallaby who visits early mornings
Gus the Massive Goanna just talk baby talk and he will walk along with you on his way to the roof
Ernie the Echidna who scrambles over the rocks
The Magpies who know you and never attack and often build their nest in the massive, 100s of years old gum tree
The Kookaburras who are fiercely territorial and guard their patch furiously
The Beautiful Lorikeets who eat out of your hands but we are asked not to encourage them
