Tightly-held bungalow of 64 years on substantial 607sqm block

Rich in history and timeless period appeal, this freestanding California bungalow has been tightly-held by the one family for an incredible 64 years and is now offered to the market for the second time ever. Occupying a 607sqm parcel in an ultra-central location, it reveals beautifully maintained interiors with generous proportions graced with soaring pressed-metal ceilings, hardwood timber floors and classic original framework. Elegant formal lounge and dining areas feature an exquisite, preserved fireplace, while a gourmet stone kitchen is equipped with quality stainless steel gas appliances and enjoys access to a sun washed balcony. Extended by award-winning architect Philip Thalis, the home comprises five generous bedrooms, three of which are on the upper-level, while the lower level opens out to an oversized backyard amid established native fruiting trees and gardens.
Notes from the owner - `The best thing about living at 137 Doncaster Avenue is its location. It is so convenient to walk to Kensington Primary, Sydney High, UNSW, Centennial Park, the SCG, Coogee Beach, POW Hospital and The Australian Golf Course. I occasionally walk home from the city, and cycle there regularly on dedicated cycle tracks. Then I come home to the warmth of my Californian bungalow, with its hardwood floors, high pressed-metal ceilings, original fireplace and timber work; through to a garden sanctuary where the only sound is birdsong and the wind rustling the trees. A perfect location.'
