This rare estate-like property is located in an ultra-central position, offering a freestanding California bungalow that has been cherished by one family for 64 years. Set on a generous 607 square meter parcel of land, the home showcases timeless period charm with beautifully maintained interiors and spacious proportions.

The interior features soaring pressed-metal ceilings, classic original framework, and hardwood timber floors that enhance the character of the residence. Elegant formal lounge and dining rooms are highlighted by a preserved fireplace, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

The gourmet stone kitchen is equipped with quality stainless steel gas appliances and provides access to a sunlit balcony, perfect for enjoying outdoor views. The home was extended in 1983 by an award-winning architect, adding to its unique appeal.

Comprising five generous bedrooms, three of which are located on the upper level, the property offers ample accommodation for families. The garden level opens to an oversized backyard surrounded by lawns and mature trees, providing a tranquil outdoor space.

Additional features include open plan living and dining areas with bi-fold doors leading to the balcony, ornate ceilings, picture rails, ceiling fans in the upper-level bedrooms, modern bathrooms with marble vanities, and an internal laundry. The master bedroom boasts a window seat and Juliet balcony, while the garden bedrooms are designed to connect with the natural surroundings.

The oversized backyard includes established native fruiting trees and extensive subfloor and attic storage, with potential for further extension subject to council approval. The location is highly convenient, situated just 350 meters from light rail, buses, shops, and popular eateries. It is a 10-minute walk to the University of New South Wales and a short drive to Prince of Wales Hospital, with rapid access to the Sydney CBD, airport, and eastern beaches.
