Truly a unique investment opportunity in the commercial heart of Strathfieldsaye; this 887m2 block includes two self-contained dwellings on one title. The property is located directly opposite the Strathfieldsaye IGA and is zoned commercial with the dwellings separated for rates and utility payment purposes.

The cleverly designed split level rear home was built by local architect Michael De Vincentis as his primary residence with the original front dwelling with side extension serving as his Professional Practice. The two dwellings were linked by an intercom system for this purpose. Whereas the current owner purchased the property to provide 24 hour care for her beautiful mother. The unique separation of the dwellings would also enable future purchasers to rent out one or both dwellings; with all Strathfieldsaye amenities and public transport literally on the doorstep.

The original front dwelling is framed by seaside daisies and well established Crepe Myrtle and Lilac Trees. It includes two living spaces, two double bedrooms with a study off the master, a compact functional kitchen with basic cabinetry, skylight and upright Westinghouse electric cooker and central bathroom with vanity, bath and shower. A separate toilet is located off the laundry which includes a brand new electric hot water system. The home is serviced by ducted electric heating and cooling and includes provision for single car off street parking via double gates.

The architecturally designed two level rear dwelling sits within a low maintenance private cottage garden featuring winding gravel paths, an arbour with grape vines, a vegetable / herb garden and mature olive, apple, apricot and fig trees. A series of elevated timber decks wrap around the home, providing practical access and a seamless transition from the outdoors.


There are three bedrooms, with the master on the mezzanine level serviced by an ensuite with corner spa, vanity and toilet and Juliette balcony. The unique design features custom made windows including a striking bay window and cathedral ceilings in the lower level open plan living – dining – kitchen zone. The highly functional kitchen features stainless steel appliances, striking cabinetry with under-bench lighting, double sink, Kleenmaid electric wall oven and Chef-Ceran cook top and extensive storage options including a large corner walk in pantry.


Other attributes of the rear dwelling include:

• Space saving laundry / bathroom with toilet and shower
• Split system heating & cooling
• Additional Nobo electric wall heaters in two bedrooms and living
• Double carport including a studio with power
• x 7 1.5 k/w solar panels


Properties with this much potential and possibility rarely present themselves in the market - don’t miss your opportunity.
