Set well back from the street in a boutique Art Deco block of eight, this 'Rutland' apartment is a desirable alternative to a semi or terrace. It basks in northerly sunshine as it gazes out over the bobbing boats of sparkling Double Bay from its elevated first-floor corner positon.
Resplendent in vivid c1930s period charm, it's truly house-like with a grand entrance vestibule, various hallways and distinct separation between the living spaces and bedrooms. Crisp white walls are set against dark timber floorboards as the generous formal rooms flow to two separate balconies. The dining room could also be used as an oversized home office for work-from-home professionals. The loggia-style terrace is like another room, making it ideal for all-weather entertaining. An urban sanctuary, it's peaceful and private with leafy vistas.
Enviably placed on the border of Double Bay, it's just a ten-minute stroll to village shops, cafes and restaurants, world-class boutiques and foreshore reserves. It's also convenient to bus, rail and ferry transport, thriving Westfield Bondi Junction and celeb-filled Bondi Beach.
