On the high side of Judge Street, in the eclectic collective known as Petrie Terrace, overlooking the rooftops of workers cottages, and looking up at the rejuvenated Barracks precinct is a freehold town home of grand proportions.

Superbly created from the division of a 100 year old heritage building, this three bedroom, two bathroom home of substance is representative of a gracious bygone era, with all of the 21st century conveniences demanded by the discerning buyer.

Through the security gate, the front steps of 37 Judge Street lead to an elevated patio paved with terra cotta tiles where a large outdoor table and chairs sits under a 100 year old tree. This patio forms part of the roof of the double garage that is accessible by the electronic door directly below.

The front door has a timber porch protected by a stately gabled roof and when that wide, solid timber front door is cast open the beauty of this enviable residence is exposed.

The dark knots in the honey coloured timber floors pickup the colours of the western red cedar skirting, architraves and solid doors. Above every door is a panel of fretwork in the same rich timber. Practical timber picture rails are true to the era, as are the large four panel push out windows with their rich rippled amber glass.

The sumptuous feast of red, brown and honey timber tones is beautifully offset with uniform ash white walls and the vaulted atrium features a large round stained glass window.

An open staircase leads to a well planned bathroom with a high ceiling and skylight vented through a large timber fretwork ceiling rose. There is a full bath with cedar fascia and a well designed vanity area.

Either side of the bathroom is a large bedroom. These are mirror images of each other and both have three door built-in robes, high ceilings and delightful attic windows that are 2.4m across.

Descend the stairs to the main living area and you will find a third bedroom at the front of the house. This charming room has its own built-in robe and its windows look out into the garden. Across from this bedroom is another bathroom with shower, vanity and a second toilet.

The well equipped solid timber kitchen including a compact modern laundry with stacked washer dyer and full size laundry trough; and a well lit, flexible pantry – discretely adjoins the dining room, allowing for both formal and informal entertaining.

French doors lead to the back lawned area surrounded by a high fragrant hedge, and features a covered eating area for al fresco dining all year round. A good sized clothes line is discretely located so you can sun dry your sheets and air your blankets.

The house has reverse cycle air-conditioning, is wired for high speed internet and pay TV, and is fully fenced and pet friendly – this property really does tick all the boxes. This gracious inner city oasis will provide you with a beautiful balance of seclusion and inclusion and will reward you both physically and financially with its timeless grace and cosmopolitan location. They are not making any more like this!
