Designed by an architect as his own family home, and cherished by the current owners for 49 years, this distinctive mid-century residence reflects an approach to living that feels every bit as relevant today. Light-filled open plan kitchen, living and dining play out beneath soaring raked ceilings, naturally ventilated by operable clerestory windows, complemented by air conditioning and ducted gas heating.
Western Red Cedar recurs throughout interiors, framing wide sliding doors that open to paved entertaining. Wrapped in wisteria, a pergola provides a picturesque, shady setting overlooking an in-ground pool, all set against a private backdrop alive with native birdlife. Thoughtful zoning continues through accommodation, separating bedrooms from living, with the primary enjoying an ensuite, and walk-in wardrobes to secondary bedrooms bringing excellent storage.
A generous setback and well-considered floorplan allow a future extension to be easily envisaged without losing the qualities that define this home (STCA).Centrally located in a quiet street, walkability to train and city-bound buses, parks, village shops and Lindfield East Public School, together with Killara High School zoning, delivers a lifestyle with genuine all-age appeal.
