'Cloncorrick 2/32 Darling Point Road, Darling Point

Enjoying an address of distinction with dress circle views of the boat-filled Bay below and across to the iconic Opera House, Bridge, Sydney Harbour and NYE fireworks, this gracious house-sized apartment occupies virtually an entire floor in the harbourside landmark building "Cloncorrick". Originally a grand classic Victorian Gothic mansion designed by distinguished architect John Horbury Hunt (c.1884), the fastidiously restored building is now home to just 4 exclusive strata apartments. Opening out to a beautiful sandstone-walled private level garden as well as an enormous North-facing deep verandah, Apartment 2 is an unspoiled treasure. Featuring soaring 3.7m high ceilings, impressive joinery, gothic archways and a wealth of classical period details, the sprawling layout includes: a stately entrance foyer, large drawing room (with gas fireplace), separate dining room (with fireplace and vaulted ceiling), sitting or sunroom and a powder room. There are 3 bedrooms with built-ins, the main bathroom, galley-style kitchen (with gas cooktop, Bosch dishwasher, ample storage), versatile laundry/utility room and a lockup garage (via Annandale Street). Tightly held by one family for 33 years, this gracious garden apartment is well appointed for easy living. Ready to love as is or adapt to your personal choice of style, this remarkable opportunity offers a much sought after location - a short walk to marinas, harbourfront parks, Double Bay shops and restaurants, Edgecliff supermarkets, train station and express city buses.
