Artfully renovated Architectural home in the heart of Paddington

You should never judge a book by its cover.<br/><br/>From the exterior, this property presents as a quaint cottage, complete with an open front veranda and brimming with character charm.<br/>Inside however, it transforms into a spacious, multi-level, architectural showstopper that perfectly capitalises on the 602m2 block.<br/><br/>Award winning Nielsen Jenkins architects sought to enhance liveability and connection with the site, but this is no ‘cookie-cutter’ renovation. In the original part of the home there are three bedrooms, an open plan lounge and dining area with a/c and polished timber floors plus a stylish bathroom.<br/><br/><br/>A spacious and light-filled study/sitting area acts as a transition to the extension at the rear of the home.<br/>This vast, contemporary space is in contrast to the rest of the property – with striking concrete flooring, ducted a/c and a distinctive modern feel.<br/>Enormous 4-metre high cavity sliders at the rear of the lounge room are not only an engineering marvel, they also perfectly frame a lush and leafy outlook across the swimming pool and beyond.<br/>It feels tranquil and private.<br/>There is an entertainer’s deck with ample room for wining and dining, plus an integrated BBQ to easily cater for pool-side parties.<br/>There is also a guest bathroom within easy reach.<br/><br/>The kitchen has rich timber cabinetry and quality appliances including integrated fridges and Neff ovens.<br/>The renovation has delivered beautiful moments throughout the property and there is an internal courtyard garden off the kitchen that also creates a light well for the home.<br/><br/>The Master suite is in the new section of the home and it is a private and calming retreat, with a balcony overlooking the courtyard garden.<br/>The adjoining ensuite has an organic shaped freestanding bath and it also opens onto a private garden, enhancing this zen-like space.<br/><br/>The secure garage conveniently provides the homeowner with easy access into the new section of the property.<br/>Guests can choose to enter via the original front door, or along the side of the house, where stairs deliver you directly to a stunning timber door and the contemporary addition.<br/><br/>The property is situated in a highly prized neighbourhood.<br/>It is conveniently close to both Paddington’s Latrobe Terrace and Rosalie Village, where you will find shops, restaurants and cafes all within an easy stroll.<br/>It is also in the catchment for Milton State School, within easy reach of numerous other schools and just 3km to the CBD.<br/><br/>This is an exceptional home with a versatile floor plan that could easily cater for dual occupancy or multi-generational living.<br/>It can really only be appreciated upon inspection.
