Retaining its significant heritage features, this freestanding c1900 cottage sits comfortably in its context, while only hinting at the spectacular renovation within, complete with every high quality design feature imaginable. Designed by Mackenzie Pronk Architects with interiors by Jo Lawless of Lawless & Meyerson, the four-bedroom home is a masterclass in functional simplicity with a sunlit double-height extension linking the old with the new and crafted to take full advantage of a due north rear aspect. The minimalist form and epic scale of the living pavilion are juxtaposed with the fine period craftsmanship while a seamless flow to a sunny established garden makes both family life and entertaining a dream. Devoted to a parents' retreat, the upper level features a home office or nursery with northerly views over the gardens affording a tranquil treehouse feel. This is the best of village living and city convenience with top cafes and restaurants at the top of the street.
