Flawlessly combining historic features with an incredible modern transformation, this thrilling Paddington terrace is a truly high-end family haven. Presenting to the street as a gorgeous residence, this 3-level home is far more than initially meets the eye. In fact, with expansive, sun-drenched, rear indoor/outdoor poolside pavilion plus additional fully self-contained 1 bedroom cottage, it stands as a sumptuous and utterly unique property, an astonishing inner-east sanctuary perfect for families. Superbly private, it allies classic splendour with cutting edge design, the heritage front section featuring grand library and lounge but the house then opening in exciting fashion to the awesome rear kitchen and dining area with adjoining outdoor area including lap pool. The main bedroom space on level 1 is a further luxurious space with massive en-suite and private terrace. Two further upper bedrooms, both brilliantly appointed, add to the extraordinary picture. A further self-contained bedroom suite with air-conditioning and sauna on the 2nd floor make it a vast and exceptional family residence.
