This Glenn Murcutt-designed residence features a simple Victorian facade with wrought-iron railings on a 700 square metre block.
At the front of the home (the older section) are three bedrooms and large linked formal lounge and dining rooms, all with the high ceilings traditionally associated with the Victorian era.
Walk through to the newer section of the home, dominated by the parquetry-floored kitchen and adjoining breakfast and living area, flowing to the poolside terrace. The shaded pool area is landscaped with quartzite paving, low maintenance garden beds, and pool-side cabana with a stainless steel barbecue.
Other features include electronic louvres, internal atrium gardens, marble fireplaces, timbers, plasterwork, garaging with automatic gates and additional off-street parking.
The agent is Tim Wieland, of Raine & Horne Drummoyne, on 9719 8288.
