Welcome home..!
Built with an eye for detail, and with flair for art and design, this unusual family home, currently configured to accommodate two generations of the same family, will warm your heart and inspire your creativity.
Nestled within a wonderful rainforest enclave, completely private and backing onto a reserve, this much-loved and long-held family home is in pristine condition, with nothing left to be done!
Only a moments walk (via the reserve next door) to Careel Bay playing fields, and a short drive to Whale and Avalon beaches, Barrenjoey High School, express city transport and village shops, this home is beautifully designed, well built and centrally located, it's ready to go.
Combining wonderful recycled and new materials, this is a home with heaps of character. There are extra wide solid European oak floors running throughout the house - upstairs and down, and stunning reclaimed sandstone and piers from the old Darling Harbour wharf. There's a great fireplace (gas, Jetmaster) surrounded by sandstone from an old pub in Balmain, mature lush gardens and wide covered verandahs. There's lots to admire...
Currently configured as nearly 2 separate spaces (and easily fully split, or completely integrated), offering incoming buyers the opportunity to tailor it to their own requirements with minimal effort.
On the ground floor is a massive laundry, a generous kitchen, with a gas range cooker and heaps of storage. There's a great living room opening to a covered timber deck, and a double bedroom and en-suite, with a door to the garden...
Upstairs, is a large living room, with open plan kitchen (another range cooker, plenty of storage) 3 large double bedrooms, all with fans, a master with both walk in and built in robes, facing North and East, a stunning family bathroom and separate loo, and a spectacular extra deep covered timber verandah.
Entertaining? No problem...
Elsewhere, there's a generous (and good head height) under-house workshop/store, a semi carport at the front, mature tropical gardens, a fully fenced pool and a cabana, plus pizza oven...
So...a little bit Bali, a little bit Beach, a little bit Barn...adds up to a whole lot of house, brimming with character!
