Spread over two impressive levels, it comprises three beautiful bedrooms, two designer bathrooms and a magnificent mezzanine level, highlighted by cleverly orientated glass aspects, offering fourth bedroom, retreat and a brilliant home office/study space with a bespoke built-in-desk. Nestled in a plantation street, this remarkable family home retains many of its original features including soaring ceilings, leadlight entry, open fireplaces with timber surrounds and decorative tiled grates. An inviting hallway is adorned with fretwork and leads to an expansive open plan living, dining and vogue kitchen space where enormous exposed timber trusses, stunning glass aspects and a marble-surround open fireplace form an integral part of this aesthetically impressive home. Ideal for entertaining, it also features clever bi-fold doors opening onto a covered alfresco entertaining deck overlooking landscaped gardens. The highly-credentialed kitchen will delight with its 900mm stainless steel Smeg dual-fuel cooker, walk-in-pantry, crisp white 2-pac cabinetry and black granite counters including an island with an Original Shaws double-sink and antique tap-ware.
