Perfectly positioned in a quiet enclave at the doorstep of Camperdown Memorial Park, this spacious residence stands on a level block with a private living/entertainment courtyard and gated entry to a pedestrian lane leading to wide-tree lined Northwood Street and the park.

One of a pair of attached homes with period brick facades, the house was rebuilt eight years ago, with the facade all that remains of its Victorian origins. Set behind a traditional iron palisade fence and tessellated tiled verandah, it has great street appeal.

Spanning two levels, the house is surprisingly spacious with an innovative modern design that maximizes natural light using Velux and Solatube skylights. Polished timber flooring, high ceilings and reverse-cycle air-conditioning are other appealing features.

At entry level are a side entry hall, double bedroom, bathroom (with laundry facilities), open-plan granite/gas kitchen (with central island, stainless steel gas stove, Fisher and Paykel dishdrawer) and a spacious living area with bi-fold glass doors opening to the covered timber-decked courtyard.

Upstairs are a king-size main bedroom, another bathroom (with shower above the bath) and a large study that could be reconfigured as a third bedroom. Both the bedroom and study have large built-in wardrobes.

Within easy walking distance are buses, trains, RPA Hospital, the University of Sydney and King Street shops, cafes and restaurants.
