Meticulously transformed into a sophisticated sanctuary with serene surrounds, this three bedroom plus study Edwardian is a blue ribbon base embracing excellence at every opportunity. Expertly renovated and extended in consultation with an architect, Lochlea successfully combines beautifully restored period features with a generous, open and light-filled extension where an understated monochrome palette meets with clean lines. Poised between enticing living and dining rooms, a gourmet kitchen features a butler's pantry, appliances from top brands, stone benchtops and soft-close cabinetry. Fully retractable double glazed doors lead from the living domain to decks including an entertainer's haven introducing northerly light. A large central bathroom with clawfoot bath serves the spacious bedrooms, the study hosts built-in joinery and the private, picturesque rear garden highlights deciduous foliage and includes a watering system. Further features include hydronic heating, an Oblica fireplace, cooling, extensive insulation, 12 foot ceilings, original ceiling roses, open fireplaces, designer light fittings, fully restored double hung sash windows, bespoke cedar shutters, original Baltic pine floorboards, a large attic and OSP for two. On substantial land of approximately 506m2, Lochlea finds a host of amenities nearby including transport, schools and the eateries and shops of dynamic Sydney Road, plus the city's heart is easy to reach.
