Tucked away in the sought-after enclave of St John's Wood, 80 St John's Avenue is a beautifully renovated post-war home, effortlessly blending classic 1948 charm with a contemporary architecturally designed expansion. Nestled in a leafy, peaceful pocket, this expansive family residence offers a rare sense of privacy, just minutes from the heart of Ashgrove.
Upon entry, this home unfolds into a spacious upstairs level, where a generous lounge welcomes you, adjoined by a quiet, purposeful office space. Polished hardwood floors and traditional timber windows reflect the warm, timeless character of the original home, while square-set ceilings and statement openings hint at the expanded living spaces beyond. Flowing through to the dining room, and continuing the hardwood flooring and crisp white walls, the traditional living area quietly transforms into a sleek, modern kitchen and breezy indoor-outdoor rear deck elevated above the backyard. The light filled guest room and beautifully appointed main bathroom sit to the front, while a luxurious primary suite with ensuite and walk-in robe overlooks the greenery to the rear, and the entire space has a bright and calming atmosphere.
This home expands further downstairs, with a large family room that leads to a secluded, covered patio and an expansive open-air terrace, both surrounded by leafy gardens and established trees. With two more generously sized and private bedrooms and another well-appointed bathroom, this space has been plumbed for the addition of a future second kitchen and lends itself to growing families, multigenerational living, or a home-based business. A separate laundry with cabinetry, double garage, and an extra space for a workshop all add to this home's delightful balance of adaptability, functionality, and contemporary presentation.
