Last Listing description (April 2026)

Positioned within one of Upper Sandy Bay's most tightly held and admired enclaves, this beautifully preserved circa-1920 residence is a compelling expression of timeless character, thoughtfully enhanced for contemporary living.

From the moment you step into the skylit central hallway, a sense of space, light and quiet elegance unfolds. Soaring ceilings, solid timber doors, sash windows and exquisite original detailing speak to the craftsmanship of a bygone era, while creating an atmosphere that feels both refined and welcoming.

The ground floor reveals a series of beautifully proportioned living spaces, including formal lounge and dining rooms adorned with original Baltic pine flooring that brings warmth and cohesion throughout. The flexible floorplan allows these spaces to adapt effortlessly to modern needs, with the option to configure a fourth bedroom if desired.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen is both functional and inviting - appointed with quality European appliances, gas cooking, and thoughtful details such as under-stair wine storage. A gas fireplace enhances the ambience, making this a natural gathering place for everyday living and relaxed entertaining.

Accommodation on the lower level includes two generous bedrooms, one with plush new wool carpet and built-in robes, the other rich in character with an original fireplace and bespoke shelving. Two stylishly updated bathrooms, a renovated laundry with custom joinery, and excellent storage throughout ensure practicality is delivered with ease. Ducted central heating across both levels provides year-round comfort.

Upstairs, a versatile and expansive third bedroom offers a private retreat, complete with vanity, sink and wardrobe. Whether envisioned as a luxurious main suite, guest quarters, home office or additional living space, this level will adapt beautifully to your lifestyle.

Outdoors, a secluded courtyard garden and covered entertaining area offer a peaceful extension of the home - ideal for intimate gatherings or quiet relaxation. The single garage, with remote access and French doors opening to the garden, presents further flexibility as a studio, gym or creative space, complemented by tandem off-street parking.

Recent upgrades have been carefully considered to enhance both comfort and longevity, including a new roof, gutters and fascia, improved insulation, new wool carpets, custom cabinetry, and refreshed internal and external finishes - ensuring the home is presented to an exceptional standard.
