Peaceful Architect-Designed Family Home In A Tightly Held Village Setting, RLA To Secure Parking
Beyond the pretty cottage facade of this 7m-fronted semi lies a bright and spacious family home tucked away in a tightly held cul-de-sac enclave just off Bronte Road. Set on an unexpectedly deep block in the heart of Charing Cross village, the two storey home opens to a landscaped north facing courtyard and is the only property on the street to feature rear lane access to parking. The original front of the home retains its vintage charm while a contemporary extension by architect Angus Mackenzie has been designed to take full advantage of its sunny northerly aspect and create a close connection with the outdoors via oversized cedar-framed doors and windows. Capturing views over the neighbourhood rooftops from the upper level, the stylishly appointed home is an easy down the adjacent laneway to Queens Park and footsteps to Bronte Road's cafes and delis, renowned schools and transport.
