25 York Rd, Bondi Junction NSW 2022, Australia

This prestigious park-side entertainer was built c1905 in the beautiful Federation style and has undergone an extensive renovation to create a home of rare distinction on a spacious 430sqm parcel of land. A seamless fusion of period grandeur and contemporary luxury rings true to its architectural pedigree, secure with rear lane access and a large garage creating a perfect family compound. Secluded from the street for optimal privacy, the enchanting property is quiet and surrounded by low maintenance gardens with a sun-drenched north/east facing yard and a sweeping jacaranda tree which turns magnificently purple in the spring and is lit up by hardwired fairylights at night. The curved entrance is grand with a classic tiled undercover porch leading to the wide entry hall, leadlight windows, soaring ceilings and original hardwood floors. The residence features expansive formal and casual living areas and the quality chef’s kitchen steps out to French bifold doors which open all the way onto a wide deck and scented level garden for alfresco dining. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to secure a forever family home perfectly nestled between the shopping strips of Oxford Street, Paddington and Ocean Street, Woollahra, walking distance to the transport and shopping hub of Bondi Junction and close proximity to great schools and beaches.
