Original Edwardian kerbside, this dual-level beauty has kept high ceilings, picture rails, deep skirts and a cast-iron fireplace with period surround in the living zone, but the rest is designer-modern and super-sleek. Wide-format floorboards, white walls and plantation shutters are a backdrop to amazing rooms. Three downstairs and two upstairs bedrooms share deluxe bathrooms (two en suite), while one has a gas fireplace. A big lounge room has ceiling speakers, built-in cabinetry and mood lighting; it opens to a covered deck looking out to a good-sized, backyard. The kitchen, with abutting skylit meals zone, is a cracker: huge stone-topped island bench, a stack of glossy white cabinetry, Liebherr integrated fridge/freezer, Italian Barazza oven and Asko dishwasher. Ducted heating and refrigerated cooling, hydronic heating, garden shed and water tank are other attractions.
