In an tranquil enclave elevated above Cooper Park stands this beautiful family residence with expansive leafy views, perfect north aspect and a brilliantly versatile layout with optional use as a 3-level house or 2-level home plus spacious apartment with its own entrance. Exceptionally private and deceptively large, the freestanding house is set on a wide block with enchanting gardens and direct access to the park. Renovated and extended with sunlit interiors flowing to wide decks and garden terraces, the c1900 double-fronted house was built in the Victorian Gothic style by renowned builder Edward Knox Harkness who developed much of this parkside precinct. Terrific location moments to Double Bay village, 100 metres to parkside Café Arno & dog friendly Lough Playing Fields, 500 metres to Bondi Junction shopping, buses & trains. Outstanding.
