On the market for the first time in 25 years, this substantial family home is desirably placed on the border of Paddington, Darlinghurst and Surry Hills footsteps to a seemingly endless selection of cosmopolitan attractions. Behind its over 100 year-old heritage façade lies a contemporary-style three storey residence with a versatile separate self-contained studio.
Designed to maximise its sun-blessed north-to-rear aspect, it boasts formal and informal living/dining spaces and sumptuous open plan indoor/outdoor entertaining. The traditional living/dining room with high ceilings and timber floorboards is warmed by a gas fireplace while the chef's kitchen will inspire intimate gatherings with family and friends. The well-appointed bedroom and bathroom accommodation is complemented by a studio with a private entrance ideal for nannies, in-laws, teens, tenants or work-from-home professionals.
Extremely well-connected by public transport, it's set in a charming tree-lined street central to top schools, Moore Park, harbour foreshore reserves and Sydney's thriving CBD.
