25 Gurney Road

Best offers by 12:00pm Tuesday 30th June (unless sold prior) Sitting stone-fronted pretty amongst Gurney Road's Bungalows is a c1900 symmetrical cottage that flips the script where its architectural dual-levelled rear addition salutes mid-century and surveys a poolside setting that would revel in a 'Slim Aarons-style' edit, just steps from Rose Park Primary and Victoria Park. All is what is seems for a beautifully preserved and meticulously updated original section defined by its four main rooms, white wash pine floors, heavenly-high ceilings, ornate fireplaces and sun-catching sash windows. The expansive central sitting room provides a versatile pause where the 'old' transitions to that inspired open-plan addition framed in terracotta tiled floors and timber-clad ceilings; a warm, tactile aesthetic that has gone full circle. The eyes are drawn through prolific timber-framed glass and onto the kidney-shaped pool beyond. Avid home cooks are drawn to the super-functional, storage-laden kitchen that tucks neatly into its own spacious corner. A void adds volume and architectural verve to a two-storey addition that rises to a mezzanine-style retreat/bedroom with study zone, walk-in robe, ensuite and raked ceilings. Step out to a vast rear garden setting with a covered patio, shed, that pool and the promise of a value-adding reimagining when you're good and ready. For now, look back at the home you now call your own and imagine the enviable lifestyle it affords within a stroll for Dulwich Village, an array of cafes, Victoria Park's wetlands, Hutt Street precinct and impromptu Fringe shows. Script flipped. Forever sorted.
