Offering a teasing glimpse from the kerbside, like the soundtrack to a mystery movie, the suspense rises to a crescendo as you swing open the front gate. Once inside, it's time to forget the madding crowds and bask in the tranquility of this heavenly place.

Rarely will you find a stylish cedar weatherboard sanctuary with elevated nor westerly city views in a prime northern slopes location like this.

The on-trend 1960s vibe permeates throughout spacious, modernised and light-filled living areas. The flow to the outdoors and privacy is arguably perfect.

With obvious appeal to first and last home-buying singles and couples, the current owners have enhanced the versatility with a spacious studio and new bathroom downstairs. This separate accommodation could help pay a mortgage, and is ideal for extended family, teens, and visitors. This area also includes a large storeroom, a workshop, and links via a covered paved patio with easycare tropical gardens.

With such magical mystical qualities, a simple drive-by isn't enough here - you must come inside. What makes the opportunity even more enticing is that the owners are heading offshore and they intend to meet the market on or before auction day.

• The downstairs studio acts as a third bedroom if you wish. • School zones: Victoria Avenue school and double Grammar zone. Nearby are St Michaels, St Kentigern Boys & Girls, ACG and Baradene College. • Moments to Newmarket & Parnell, walk, run or ride to the Domain & Hospital and only a short commute to the motorways.

Floor Area: 140sqm (approximately - 113sqm upstairs, 27sqm downstairs)
