Last Listing description (December 2019)

Positioned at the end of a private no-through road (Hillcrest Road) on land once owned by the Hillcrest Maternity Hospital, this double storey home presents an offering like no other and is suitable for all age groups due to its three separate living zones, up to 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom accommodation and choice of possible configurations.

Craftsman built with a superb connection to the outdoors with almost all rooms opening to the pool and entertaining terrace, the double cavity brick property is lined almost exclusively with pine joinery with soaring cathedral ceilings enhancing the sense of space. An ultra-spacious lower level rumpus with kitchenette, bathroom and separate entrance inspires multiple possibilities as a teen retreat, home office, Air BnB or guest suite.

Sea breezes, city views, a desirable north-easterly aspect and secondary access via Rowan Lane concludes a unique property that's made utterly irresistible by the beachside lifestyle it offers. Stroll to Merewether beach in under five minutes where you can swim in the ocean baths, master the surf breaks or enjoy dinner or a drink at the Surfhouse.
