It is one of the highest locations in Mosman Park and this is the first time it has been released for public sale.This rare, passive solar home is set on a stunning long block running east to west. The long northern wall is glass from floor to ceiling, offering dappled light filtered through established trees and truly beautiful gardens. It is well-maintained and remarkably quiet with only birdsong to be heard from any room. At the entrance from York Tce there is an attached teen/granny residence comprising living room, laundry, kitchen, bathroom, bedroom/study and private courtyard which could be for guests or a rental income. From here a door leads through to the main bedroom, living room with mezzanine level, enormous kitchen and dining area, two more spacious bedrooms with built-in robes, bathroom, laundry, sun room and pool.

The main entrance is halfway down the block off the second carport, which provides entry through to the main living room.The home incorporates both family time and privacy, with several entertaining and lounging areas.

The layout enables almost every room to enjoy the northern aspect, framed off the living and kitchen areas by a large healthy mulberry tree and fruiting lemon. In the pebbled courtyard sits a delightful bike/garden shed. At the rear is a big pool with room for several seating areas around it and a big work room or pool house.
