Decorated in a style that blends vintage, rustic, and romantic elements for a comfortable lived-in elegance, this solid concrete block townhouse offers a quiet refuge for those seeking a quality lifestyle within easy reach of the CBD.

Bordering Newmarket Park's playground and walking tracks, this stunning executive home was built in the mid 2000s, and extended years later by the current owners to make it even more spacious and inviting.

Entry is via a secluded front courtyard, from where you'll step through the front door and immediately sense the calm. Lacquered timber floors flow through to two separate living areas, from where you'll access the magical cloistered rear garden via French doors. Green thumbs will love it here, as will entertainers, readers, and meditators.

The open kitchen-family area has all the storage and bench space you could hope for. In addition to the living areas, the ground level includes a flexible dining or study room near the entry - plus great storage. Upstairs, three generous double bedrooms with quality built-ins serve guests or children, and there are two noticeably spacious bathrooms plus a bath.

The central location of this genteel enclave is highly sought after. Moments from Parnell's cafes and restaurants, Newmarket's shops, the hospital, the University, and the CBD. Double Grammar School zoning is a bonus, and of course, ACG Parnell is just around the corner. There is a double garage plus off-street parking for a third vehicle.

Much more than a sanctuary for empty nesters, couples, or small families - here's your ticket to a secure and happy future.
