1/69A Francis Street

Tucked at the end of a private driveway and entirely set back from the street, this character-filled ground-floor residence lives more like a freestanding cottage than an apartment. One of just four in an intimate Art Deco block, it presents a rare opportunity to secure a house-like footprint in one of Bondi's most coveted beachside enclaves, moments from the sand, the cafés of Hall Street and the buzz of Campbell Parade. Spanning approximately 90sqm of light-filled, single-level living, the interiors strike a balance between original Deco character and a fresh, move-in-ready presentation. Three generous double bedrooms sit alongside a spacious living room and a bright dine-in kitchen that opens onto a lush, rainforest-like communal garden, a tranquil green backdrop that feels worlds away from the coastal bustle just streets away. Comfortable and inviting in its current form, the home also offers genuine scope to add value. There is exciting potential to undertake a contemporary renovation, introduce a rear deck for indoor-outdoor entertaining, (STCA) - a rare canvas in a tightly held pocket.
