Before moving to Canberra in 2011 the late Bryce Courtenay, and his wife Christine, completed a substantial renovation to their property in Reid. Christine has now decided to return to Sydney creating an unexpected opportunity for discerning buyers to acquire an exceptional residence in a heritage listed suburb.
Positioned in a tightly held enclave it provides access to a vibrant inner city life style from an oasis of calm and refined elegance. This beautifully appointed residence evokes an ambience of pure luxury, style and comfort.
It features generous bedrooms with bespoke built in wardrobes, state of the art, marble bathrooms, plush floor coverings and elegant soft furnishings throughout. Entertaining is made easy from the light filled well appointed kitchen, and a retractable awning over the large rear deck offers alfresco dining.
A mature and beautifully maintained garden surrounds the house creating a private sanctuary rich in year round colour and bird life. A rare opportunity to live in a simply beautiful home in the heart of Reid.
