Art Deco Inspired Mosman Park Classic
Hummingbirds is thrilled to bring to market a property that will be sure to appeal to many buyers looking for a solid, stylish, functional home ideally located in the heart of Mosman Park.
Built in 1945 at the tail end of the influential Art Deco period, the home has many of the original features including patterned glass in the front windows overlooking the front garden, high skirting boards, decorative ceiling panels and polished floorboards throughout.
A renovation six years ago created an open plan kitchen, dining and sitting area with the kitchen offering plenty of storage including a double door pantry with convenient drawers. Skylights in this area and the entry hall provide an abundance of natural light. This combined with high ceilings creates a sense of spaciousness and encourages a relaxed Australian lifestyle.
From here, floor to ceiling glass doors and windows lead out to the northern private and spacious courtyard which being mostly protected by a high pitched covered pergola can be used year-round. Surrounded by garden beds with a delightful climbing and thriving rose on the west boundary and a raised deck to the east, this space is ideal for entertaining family and friends, supervising young children at play or simply taking some time out to relax and enjoy some you time.
The master bedroom is off to the left from the entry and has a bank of wardrobes along one wall, and windows to the front of the property on the opposite wall. The second bedroom is also in this part of the home, and is slightly smaller with a window to the east. In between these rooms is bathroom one, with a shower, toilet, sink and vanity unit.
The third bedroom is entered to the right at the back of the home from the living area, and is large having been extended and improved in the renovation. A split system services this room, and lovely double west-facing French doors open out to the courtyard. This room could easily be swapped up to be the master bedroom.
Evaporative air-conditioning keeps the home cool on hot summer days, and a gas bayonet is situated at the front of the home for a gas heater if desired. There is a working fireplace in the front sitting room/lounge though will need a 'sweep' before using.
The upgraded Mosman Park Shopping Centre with Coles, news agency, takeaway food, post office, pharmacy and other services is within walking distance, as are local public and private schools, public transport - train and bus - and a daycare nearby on Glyde Street. It's an easy walk or bike ride to the beach and the river, and Camelot outdoor cinema is just up the road across Monument Street on Lochee Street. 31 Fairlight Street is opposite a beautiful older style church which also hosts a pre-kindy business during school-term.
The home will suit a young family, right-sizer, growing family, professional single or couple. Being a single level with only two steps up to the front patio, it would be attractive to older, less-mobile members of our society. The front gates can be closed creating a secure area for children to play on the grass with room for play equipment and trampoline.
All in all this home is a bit of a gem.
Please call me, Jane Cresswell, on 0438 850 398 if you have any questions at all.
