SOLD
A grand dual level statement residence that seamlessly combines contemporary comfort with timeless style, this magnificent four to five bedroom 1920s home is a rare golden ticket to this prestigious neighbourhood.
Set on 701sqm and comprehensively upgraded after the earthquake to create an exceptional sanctuary, it has been carefully lifted and repiled with new foundations, rewired, replumbed, regibbed, had extensive insulation installed, new roof, carpets, kitchen, bathrooms, laundry and driveway.
The romantic interiors are like something from the pages of House and Garden magazine..... it is crystal clear both inside and out that this magnificent home has had absolutely no expense spared in its transformation.
Upstairs are four large double bedrooms, each with their own unique character, including the master with tiled ensuite and walk-in-robe. One bedroom even has its own hobby room and flows out to the upper balcony, while the stylish family bathroom boasts a restored claw foot bath and undertile heating.
The lower level is for living, with an office (or fifth bedroom), full laundry, separate WC and a luxurious lounge for cosy movie nights plus a large separate living/formal dining room.
The chic white modern kitchen with walk-in-pantry, freestanding gas oven and breakfast bar is a chef's dream seamlessly connecting to the dining zone and sunroom living area. Doors open out to the private sun-drenched deck and barbecue terrace perfect for lavish entertaining. A well fenced lawn area gives plenty of space for children and pets to enjoy.
Positioned in all the desirable school zones and super convenient to Elmwood shops, Elmwood Park, Merivale and so much more, it is surprisingly peaceful despite its high profile location, and after 27 glorious years, the current owners are ready to pass this legacy estate to the next family.
