Gracing a parkside street, this elegant Californian bungalow has been timelessly and innovatively extended to capitalise on its sunny north-western aspect. Surrounded by layered landscaping upon a prime 556.4sqm block, manicured hedging and thriving gardens complement the striking c1920s facade.
Combining nostalgic charm with tasteful updates, high ornate ceilings continue from the entry vestibule through into all three bedrooms and the central formal lounge room. United by timber floorboards, the formal lounge extends into the open-plan living area which in turn connects to the landscaped backyard. Stepping outside to a protected dining terrace underneath a soaring atrium style ceiling, there is a clear line of sight to watch kids at play through the kitchen servery window. Fitted with clever storage solutions, the kitchen features a concealed appliance cupboard, a double door pantry, and St George gas cooker. Focused on family, interconnecting dining and casual living spaces are with all day sun.
Presenting three gracious bedrooms and a dual aspect study or sunroom, the single level layout is serviced by two bathrooms and a spacious laundry. The primary bathroom features a corner spa bath underneath a bank of windows along with a stone topped vanity. Updated for comfort, other features of appeal include retractable external blinds, solar panels, ducted air-conditioning and a Ventis home ventilation system.
Located for lifestyle, this enviable address is part of a leafy family focused community neighbouring the wide, open spaces of Willoughby Park. With the High Street village shops set at the end of McClelland Street, stroll to cafes and shops at your leisure. Central to Chatswood and Northbridge, parklands, local sporting facilities and the harbour itself, enjoy easy access to golf courses and waterfront walking trails.
