On the high side of a sought-after street just 300m from Artarmon village and rail, this original Federation residence c1911 blends timeless appeal with a flexible layout and further scope on an elevated level block of approximately 695.6sqm.
The home is offered for the first time in 35 years, predominantly double brick and with high ornate patterned ceilings, floorboards and traditional cast iron fireplaces remaining intact. The floorplan provides two living areas, an updated kitchen, full bathroom and three bedrooms including one adjoining the home's original kitchen and second WC, together suggesting the possibility of a self-contained 'studio-style' retreat with both separate entry and internal access.
Perfectly comfortable as is, there's certainly an opportunity to further modernise without any major structural modifications or to potentially open the house up at the rear and capitalise on the private sun-drenched north garden outlook (STCA). A lock-up garage and room for a minimum of two cars in the lengthy driveway completes this exceptional home and lifestyle package.
One of the most desirable aspects of the home is unquestionably the location; 300m from Artarmon Reserve/Playground which provides access to the pedestrian/cycle path (Cordia Way) and Wickham Walk hiking trail, the nearby railway corridor on Burra Road ensures convenient access to the village and transport, and the home is also in the catchments for Artarmon Public, Chatswood High and Willoughby Girls.
