“A distinguished alternative to an apartment or house” – Alison Coopes
Strikingly modern, this 4 bedroom + study, 3 bathroom home with private lift to all floors features an interplay of textures – wood, glass and marble – that enhance both its aesthetic appeal and its individuality. It is a home of many advantages, not the least of which is its position on the fingertip of the prestigious Darling Point peninsula, moments from harbourside Yarranabe Park. It has its own private garden, beautifully manicured and including a spacious deck with built-in BBQ and bar for entertaining. It has its own entrance, adding privacy and security, as well as direct access from its double lock-up garage. And it has a house-like feel, to which its size, 476sqm (approx.) contributes admirably.
This is an easy to maintain, lock-up-and-go property designed to accommodate the unique assets of Eastern Suburbs life.
High ceilings, oak floors, marble island kitchen and marble bathrooms – these all add their elegance to a home that stands on the fingertip of one of Sydney’s most desirable high-end peninsulas.
Formal and casual living and dining areas extend outdoors to large entertaining spaces. The formal living space features a sleek, ecosmart gas fireplace as well as outdoor heating. Casual living and dining spaces enjoy leafy views of the garden through full height glass.
A two-storey feature window in the stairwell turns the beauty of the garden into a remarkable design feature and fills the home with light.
The four bedrooms are all on one level, and three include balconies. The master is a luxuriously private retreat that includes balcony, his-and-hers fitted walk-in wardrobe and marble ensuite.
Finishes like carpets and lights, appliances, fixtures and fittings – from heated towel rails to a Vintech system – are top tier. This architect-designed townhouse has all the sophistication you’d expect in the dignified enclave of Darling Point.
The double lock-up garage includes a huge bank of large cupboards for storage as well as an extra, fitted storage room.
And lastly, there is the home’s own lift, from garage to all levels.
