Unique and inviting, this large 2 storey double brick French Provincial home with 253.2sqm approx of floor area will make you feel really special. Standing on 1416sqm approx of land, it has 4 exceedingly spacious bedrooms and a carport big enough for 2 prestige vehicles. Opening from the foyer is a formal lounge to the left and a formal dining room to the right. Both have French Doors that open onto the front verandah and look down a grand driveway. The home and grounds have the regal presence of a country estate, and major extensions and renovations have brought it into the 21st century without loss of charm or character. These include ducted air-conditioning throughout and Ilve S/S appliances and a 900mm oven in the gas kitchen. The light fittings themselves are a work of art and each room has a different one to reflect the mood created therein.

Great attention to detail continues to the wall colours, stepped cornices, classic fireplace and filigree stenciled details adorning hand painted lime washed floorboards in the casual areas and on hardwood in the formal areas. The family room is bounded by French windows and doors on 3 sides, and opens out to a colonnaded deck and level lawn, giving the effect of being at one with the garden. Total privacy is achieved by the long set back from the street and with the property’s judiciously placed foliage and big old fir, pine, oak and fig trees. There’s plenty of parking on the street as well as in the grounds. The upper landing leads to the master and second bedrooms, both of which are very large, the master having a roomy WIR with a view. In fact there is something aesthetic to look out to from every window in the house. The bathrooms have 1930s styling with a modern edge, the upper one has a half cylinder carved timber vanity with marble top, Dorf fittings, a black tiled shower and a lovely deep 2 person spa bath.

Filled with magnificent and historic residences, home to Knox, Abbotsleigh and St Leos private schools and on the rail line, Wahroonga is known to be the elite suburb of the Upper North Shore and this is your chance to be a part of it.
