Architectural Deco on the edge of the bay - one door to the bay

Artfully extended from an elaborately detailed solid-brick base, this meticulous renovation retains fine formal rooms including lounge/dining with banquette-bay stretching out to the Elwood parklands, and a sitting-room (configured to double as guest suite) stepping out to poolside gardens. A ground-floor master-suite encompasses a terrazzo-floored time-capsule bathroom, while secondary bedrooms take in sea breezes from a hall of French-doors. Original polished Tasmania Oak timber floors throughout ground floor.
