Pretty at the front with a gabled roofline and classic good looks, the architect-designed transformation of this freestanding double-brick cottage unfolds over two levels with a striking contemporary rear and highly imaginative family focused layout. Built in 1905 and recreated from the ground up without shedding its beautiful heritage facade, 'Melrose' is set on a deep level dual access block with windows on the north side bringing in the light while interiors channel a mood of understated luxury with a textural palette of materials, high-end finishes and an easy indoor/outdoor flow ideal for entertaining. On a wide tree-lined street renowned as one of Stanmore's best addresses, the four-bedroom home is superbly positioned between Stanmore village and Camperdown Park, just 750m to the station and a short walk to Enmore Road's celebrated social scene.
