Cottage and resort in one
For those who love a character cottage but feel the pull of resort life up north, this Mosman Park home emphatically ticks the box on both.
The original 100 year old timber cottage has had a lot of love poured into it with modern wiring, re-stumping and a complete repaint inside and out.
Gorgeously high ceilings and the breezeway design mark this part of the house out as one of Mosman Park's loveliest old workers' cottages.
But the surprise awaits at the rear of the home where a 2004 renovation brings a touch of Broome glamour into the mix.
The up-north luxe look is there to be seen in the Colorbond cladding on the exterior and a resort-like modern living area which spills through timber French doors out to a sunny deck and saltwater pool.
The north-facing living area in this modern section has fabulously unusual angles and vaulted ceilings, with a delightful window seat beckoning on sunny mornings.
This winning combination of old and new, traditional and eclectic modern works seamlessly.
The abundant natural light of the modern extension have made it a favourite place for entertaining, and the chef's kitchen has hosted dozens of happy guests.
Entertaining or relaxing by the poolside or on the deck is a must, as are lunches beneath the wisteria-clad pergola at the rear of the garden.
The 1920-built cottage offers a traditional central hallway with three bedrooms and a lounge arranged either side of it. All three bedrooms have large built-in-robes.
A double garage at the rear of the property is accessed via Harburn Mews, with Stirling Highway beyond.
Within the garage there is ample storage and a craftsperson's dream workshop.
Located at the Peppermint Grove end of Mosman Park, the house is in the catchment for Cottesloe Primary School and is within easy walking distance of Cottesloe's Napoleon Street and the train line.
