What's around 165 Skene Street

Elegant Art Deco

Step into timeless elegance with this impeccably preserved and thoughtfully updated Art Deco, located in one of Newtown's most coveted, blue-chip pockets. A true blend of period charm and modern functionality, this four-bedroom home offers generous proportions, exquisite detailing and the ideal layout for contemporary family living. From the moment you enter through the grand double-stained-glass doors, you're welcomed by a wide timber-panelled hallway that sets the tone for the rest of the home. Rich walnut timber wall panelling, leadlight features, ornate ceiling roses and soaring high ceilings celebrate the craftsmanship of the era while creating an inviting warmth throughout. The spacious master suite includes a walk-in robe and a private ensuite, while the three additional bedrooms are all appointed with built-in robes and desks - perfect for growing families or guest accommodation. A large, fully-fitted home office and a separate built-in study nook provide two dedicated work-from-home zones, ideal for busy professionals or families needing space for remote learning. At the heart of the home is a sleek, stone-benched kitchen complete with walk-in pantry and modern appliances, flowing seamlessly into an expansive open-plan living and dining area. Custom built-in cabinetry adds both beauty and functionality to this versatile space. For quieter moments, a separate, timber-panelled lounge with a gas fireplace offers a cosy second living area. Step outside to a secluded, low-maintenance backyard designed for effortless year-round entertaining in complete privacy. Climate comfort is assured with hydronic heating, split systems and a full hallway of cleverly designed built-in cabinetry offering extensive storage solutions. Off-street parking for two vehicles completes the picture. This is a rare opportunity to secure a character-filled family home in the heart of Newtown, close to elite schools, Pakington Street cafés and shops, and beautiful parklands.
