Bordered by Tower Reserve at the end of a serene Castlecrag cul-de-sac, this c1973 Modernist showpiece presents as decades before its time. The masterstroke of groundbreaking architect Andre Porebski, many of the first hallmarks of contemporary design are displayed within this remarkable property. Celebrated for its architectural significance and design prowess, the property has been featured in respected architectural publications such as Habitus.
Orientated to perfection benefiting from all day northern sun, spellbinding harbour views toward the boat studded waters of Sailors Bay are captured from both inside and out. Encased in walls of glass, the tranquil setting is effortlessly transported inwards. Welcoming harbour and bushland vistas as a constant presence, a strategic picture window frames the treetops in the entry void.
Proving good design is truly timeless, the elevated dining space sits underneath a circular skylight mirroring the curvature of the room. The living room is outlined by stacker doors and a sculptural suspended fireplace warms the entire home whilst creating an artful focal point. A relaxed meals area extends off the custom stone kitchen, quality appliances have been seamlessly integrated within the streamlined joinery.
Flexible in its accommodation options, the floorplan provides for three bedrooms and an executive home office or potential fourth bedroom. All three bedrooms look out toward Middle Harbour, the master holds an elevated vantage point, an ensuite connects to the master suite along with a walk-in robe.
Landscaped to blend into the bushland that lines the harbour foreshore, native planting aims to minimise maintenance and maximise privacy. Neighboured by a landmark Walter Burley Griffin home, escape the pressures of modern day living and discover the endless appeal of this hidden enclave seemingly a world away from city life and no traffic noise. Wonderfully convenient, bus transport is just 100 metres away on Edinburgh Road and the city itself is a short drive.
