Drummoyne NSW 2047

One of only a pair of surviving sandstone homes at the gateway to Drummoyne, this freestanding treasure stands as an elegant reminder of the past while offering a remarkably adaptable layout that's ideally suited to contemporary lifestyles. Dating to the late 1800s and crafted by stonemasons, the two-storey home stands as one of the east-side's earliest homes with a private setting at the cul-de-sac end of the street fronting Apex Park. Bright and spacious interiors have updated allowing its authentic soul to shine with level access to triple parking a massive bonus in this bayside setting. Available for the first time in 40 years with only ever a handful of families in ownership, this is a home that has been built to last with Mixed Use zoning and a superbly equipped studio space ideal as professional consulting rooms, a boutique design studio or wellness space.
