Auction Location: On site

On the market for the first time in 56 years, this beloved family home is resplendent in vivid c1920s period charm. It's a comfortable and functional residence with inspiring potential to renovate and capitalise on its architectural pedigree and level 643sqm parcel of land. Adding a second floor (STCA) is most likely to capture shimmering panoramic harbour views.

The vast formal lounge/dining room summons an immediate sense of grandeur with high ornate coffered dome ceilings, dark parquetry floors and an open fireplace for cosy winters. Timber architraves, leadlight bay windows and windows seats further enhance its elegance. Downstairs, the enormous casual living space, rumpus room or teen retreat is sure to impress. The kitchen is well-appointed while the covered deck gazes out over the manicured garden. With verdant leafy outlooks from every room, the home exudes a wonderful feeling of calm.

Offering a premier peninsula lifestyle central to key Vaucluse, Watsons Bay and Rose Bay attractions, it's convenient to harbour beaches, coastal walks and village shops and cafes. It's also handy to bus and ferry transport and top public and private schools. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime purchase with 'dream home' potential, it's ready to welcome in a new generation.
