A terrific family offering, this beautiful 1920s property gets all the fundamentals right - delighting at first glance behind lush greenery and a picket fence, and continuing to impress beyond with its traditional yet functional layout, quality comfort features and thrilling potential for future luxury.

After 25 years of scrupulous care from its present owners, it's exceptionally comfortable as is while providing vast scope for your own ideas. Generously proportioned rooms with classic high ceilings, a full master suite, reverse-cycle ducted air conditioning and a huge entertainers' kitchen lay a solid foundation inside; in the leafy backyard, a modern transformation has already taken place, complete with a large pool enclosed by glass fencing and a lovely decked cabana.

Throughout the residence, you'll spot many original elements including window seats and ceiling roses, and plantation shutters in every room. The kitchen boasts Smeg appliances and a servery to the dining area, while the super-sized main bathroom reveals a shower and separate tub. For convenience, there's also side laneway access to a double garage, set peacefully at the rear of the block. Options abound for this home's lucky new custodian, whether loving renovation, family-friendly extension or total rebuild appeals (STCA).

Gently elevated in a tree-lined, no through street, the property is just as desirable for its setting as for its charming design - with the cafes and shops of Penshurst Street and Victoria Avenue, Chatswood and CBD transport, two neighbourhood childcare centres and Muston Park found within a 300-metre radius. Equally impressive, it sits approximately 3km from Chatswood CBD and Metro station in the catchment zone for Willoughby Girls High School, Killara High and Chatswood High.
