Secluded harbourside charm meets versatile modern living in this substantial family residence. Tucked away in the coveted peninsula enclave of Balmain East. Bathed in natural light with a serene leafy outlook, the multi-level residence unfolds as a private haven of warmth, space and seamless indoor-outdoor connection designed by prominent architect, Brian Zulaikha.
Beautifully appointed interiors showcase polished timber floors in the living zones and cosy carpeted bedrooms, while the open-plan living area features clever bifold doors that effortlessly create a fourth bedroom.
The contemporary kitchen overlooks a verdant rear garden, flowing directly to a private deck, an idyllic spot for alfresco dining, entertaining or peaceful retreat.
Two well-appointed bathrooms include a convenient lower-level option combined with laundry and an upstairs sanctuary with tranquil views across Johnstons Bay.
Adding exceptional flexibility and income potential is a fully self-contained one-bedroom unit on the lower level, complete with its own kitchen, bathroom & courtyard, perfect for guests or tenants.
Wrapped in established gardens and backing onto the peaceful Datchett Street Reserve, the home offers a lush tropical-like escape with abundant storage in the spacious basement. Multiple balconies capture enchanting water vistas over Camerons Cove, while the upper level delivers views of Johnstons Bay, the Anzac Bridge and the sparkling Barangaroo skyline.
In this quiet prestige address, just moments from the ferry and village amenities, this is private harbourside living with rare dual-occupancy appeal.
