Outstanding three for one in coveted Harvey Street

Privately located down a tree lined drive with the calm waters of the inner harbour and St Mary's School at the end of the road, this 1930s era beauty is a superb opportunity. Three in one sums it up but seeing is most definitely believing. A substantial stucco home elevated above a neighbourhood of gracious homes, established trees and wide water views. Live in the main residence and get an income stream from the one bedroom studio or the three bedroom apartment downstairs - 360sqm (approximately) is a whole lot of house and will appeal to investors, large and extended families, or Airbnb - there are so many possible options for this outstanding Avenues property!

The ground floor apartment is a generous size with three extra large bedrooms, timber floors, French doors opening to a covered terrace, a refreshed kitchen, bathroom and open plan living. Upstairs, panoramic water views draw the eye from the large lounge with original ceiling and panelled walls with a free standing open wood fire for cosy winter nights. Dining is nestled into a sunny nook and the long deck accessed through wide French doors ensures effortless indoor/outdoor flow and seamless entertaining from the new kitchen, contemporary but sympathetic to the era of this home. There is a sky lit mezzanine, second bedroom with built in cabinetry, tiled family bathroom while down a hallway is the master suite with stylish ensuite, expansive dressing room and French doors opening to a peaceful pebbled courtyard complete with birdbath. This is luxurious refuge for any time of the day. The bijou single bedroom apartment is completely self-contained but could also be a guest suite, or for teenagers seeking independence.

Throughout this charming property unique details and thoughtful updates complement high ceilings and authentic features, creating a warm and inviting ambiance while leaving scope to bring your own design ideas. Enjoy fragrant hedges of star jasmine, fruit trees and luxuriant hedges framing a lush lawn with room for a pool, backyard cricket and children and pets to safely play.
