Ideal for a family that loves to entertain, this Leichhardt home blends ornate period features with impressive contemporary finishes.
Discover high decorative ceilings and cornices, beautiful leadlight windows, rich timber floors, a fireplace and modern stone kitchen with gas cooking.
McGrath Leichhardt sales agent, Danielle Dewhurst said, "The home blends period character and modern living very well. It is double fronted so the feeling of space to the rear of the home is evident.
"The casual living and kitchen that leads to a large covered entertaining area is a great spot for children to play and adults to relax."
The owners have reconfigured and extended this freestanding Federation home to provide plenty of living and entertaining space.
"They have made clever floor plan changes that have increased the living space and also delivered a luxe ensuite bathroom," Danielle said. "The outdoor entertaining has been totally overhauled and the home now offers ducted heating - great for the coming months."
There are three generous bedrooms and the monochrome family bathroom showcases a chic freestanding bath tub.
This property is ultra convenient as it is just a few minutes from the light rail station and an easy walk to Norton Street, parks and The Bay Run. Being at the northern end of Leichhardt the street is wide and benefits from no through traffic.
"The young family market will love this home with the bedrooms together at the front of the home and the living and level grassed yard at the rear," Danielle said. "It could also suit downsizers who are after a single level home that is close to all amenities."
