Homes fronting the Cooks River are incredibly tightly held and this tranquil family haven is surrounded by established gardens on a prime 714.5 sqm parcel of waterfront reserve land. Facing north and embraced by nature, the freestanding 1920s home features direct access to the riverside walkway leading to acres of waterfront parkland, sports fields and scenic picnic spots. Offering a sense of country like tranquility just over 10km to the CBD, the home is embraced by nature with a large sundeck for enjoying the scenic river views and a rear garden with a separate studio ideal as a creative space or retreat. Available for the first time in decades, the single-storey home retains all the authentic charm of its early 19th century heritage while being updated and extended for contemporary living. A choice of living areas, plentiful outdoor space and nature at the doorstep makes this riverfront home a really special property that sits in harmony with its surrounds. Perfect for the nature lover and outdoor enthusiasts, Earlwood is set to become even more connected with a new car-free green corridor for pedestrians and cyclists connecting Cooks River to Sydney Harbour due to open in late 2025.
