Offers Over $1,099,000
Purchased in 2000, 24 Hickenbotham Street was a home the owners were drawn to straight away, with the view, value, and timing all lining up at exactly the right moment. Over time, it became much more than just a place to live. It became the home where they raised their two boys, built their life, and made the decision to stay and grow with the house.
The view remained one of the defining parts of the home from the very beginning, but it was the life lived around it that made the property so special. The owners will miss the studio, the backyard memories of their sons and their friends playing as kids, and the simple rituals that shaped family life here, from preparing snacks for Saturday movie nights and enjoying these moments as a family and sometimes with friends. It is that sense of history, comfort, and family connection that gives this home its lasting warmth.
