An enduring and rare mid-century modernist design by a collaboration of noted Sydney architect Ken Woolley for Pettit and Sevitt and Melbourne's Neil Clerehan in 1971, and reinvigorated by Alistair McLean of Secret Design Studio in 2019, this one-owner home now offers an exciting proposition for its new owners. Enjoy its immediately inviting environment, enhance with further contemporary modifications or explore new home possibilities, STCA, in this sought-after position. <br/><br/>Brimful of natural light thanks to its intelligently considered northern orientation, its pleasing proportions enjoy stunning picture windows, high ceilings and open-concept design ahead of its time. Secluded entrance leads to home office and light-filled formal living and dining dimensions warmed by a dual-sided fireplace, while at the rear an expansive informal family room with study space offers a multitude of uses; originally designed to deliver flexible self-contained function for extended family, teenage retreat or as an oversized studio space, it surprises with a bathroom, cooktop and sink. <br/><br/>A superbly appointed contemporary kitchen - sympathetic to the original design - boasts Caesarstone benchtops, a full complement of Bosch appliances including dishwasher and butler's pantry with Euro laundry.
