The original owners are moving south; it is your turn to be enchanted. This secure urban sanctuary has been a contemporary canvas to its design-and-garden-enthusiast owners of 17 years. Every corner of the Jones Architects designed home has been further refined and the garden landscaped over time.
The lower level is abundant with living and entertaining space, opening to the west onto a sunny, Italian-style courtyard framed by magnolia trees. The easy-care garden by Sayburn Miller is centred around a stunning red-leafed Cercis tree and charming al fresco setting, complete with outdoor speakers and bespoke lighting to take summer entertaining to another level.
Sliding doors to the northeast open to your sun-soaked happy place, a solar-heated lap pool and deck enclosed by ficus hedging and dotted with frangipani and petunias.
The grand open-plan interior is supremely comfortable, the expansive kitchen features a marble waterfall island bench, soft-touch cabinetry, Italian appliances and underfloor heating. It seamlessly services the open plan dining and living, where the Tuscan-style fireplace provides the ultimate spot to curl up and relax.
A second lounge overlooks the pool via large sliding doors. A study/bedroom, spacious laundry and powder room are also on this level.
Upstairs has a high stud and is charming throughout with two double bedrooms (one with balcony) and a family bathroom, plus a primary suite with balcony, harbour views, bespoke walk-in 'robe and designer ensuite, creating serene spaces for all to rejuvenate.
There's yet more storage in the tiled garage with its large attic. Plus, a garden shed and a raised vegetable garden brimming with herbs, beans and sweet peas.
Lock up and leave, then stroll to the city ferry or the nearby Bridgeway Cinema. Cross the road for drinks and dinner at the historic Northcote Tavern, or head to excellent eateries down the road.
Move right in - your perfect summer awaits.
