Situated in the tightly held suburb of Glebe, this Victorian Italianate heritage home, built in 1885, offers an exquisite blend of period charm and contemporary style. Spanning two levels, this substantial city-fringe residence features four bedrooms and two bathrooms, with the flexibility to use the fourth bedroom as a formal lounge.
From nearly every room, you'll enjoy elevated, stunning views of kunanyi/Mt Wellington, framed by elegant bay windows. The home retains many of its period features, including select original fireplaces, high ceilings, ornate ceiling roses, and intricate windows, all thoughtfully preserved to enhance its historic character.
The beautifully updated contemporary kitchen is the heart of the home, showcasing neutral-coloured cabinetry, Tasmanian oak benchtops, a corner pantry, and ample cupboards and open shelving. It also features a top-of-the-line freestanding 900mm oven with an induction cooktop. The kitchen's centrepiece is an elegantly designed, mobile island bench, providing both functionality and style.
The renovated main bathroom harmonises with the home's heritage, featuring eye-catching decorative tiles and a stunning Blackwood vanity. On the ground floor, the well-designed compact bathroom offers modern convenience with underfloor heating, enhancing comfort and practicality.
Polished hardwood floors flow throughout the main areas, adding warmth and sophistication, while plush carpeting in the bedrooms ensures comfort. A beautiful staircase, adorned with pressed tin and a striking Blackwood banister, further highlights the home's unique charm.
The enchanting street appeal of this home captures the attention of passers-by, who often stop to a take photo. The light exterior and striking black front door create a stunning contrast, complemented by a classic picket fence, neatly clipped boxed hedges, a charming cottage garden, and a sandstone pathway leading to the entry.
At the rear, a decked entertainment area seamlessly connects to the main living space, providing an ideal setting for outdoor gatherings, enhanced by the beautifully zoned cottage gardens. Notably, the property is not overlooked by surrounding properties or pedestrians, ensuring a sense of peace and privacy. The balcony provides a perfect spot to enjoy the shifting light over the mountain and city skyline.
