When the octagon goes full circle; quirky, cool and architectural meets mid-century vibes and 360-degree views Shaped like an octagon and architecturally configured over two levels to serve 360-degree views from city to hills and back again, this 3-4-bedroom home is as quirky and cool as they come, on a sought after corner block. What was built in the 1960s by its owner/architect would have been a bold move, despite its obvious ode to mid-century design expressed still to this day through its prolific use of hardwoods. That the original kitchen still remains in all of its vintage glory is testament to the second (and current) owners, who understand the appeal of a style that has gone full circle much like the terrace that loops around the entire second level. Along the way, a retreat with a bedroom and conservatory style sitting room was added to serve its lucky occupants the option of a 4th bedroom. As far as the octagonal footprint goes, it's a simple equation of living below and sleep (3 bedrooms) above a deliberate ploy to observe the flickering lights of the CBD when retiring for the night or rising for the day. Exposed besser block in cream, hardwood timber floors, robust timber architraves, exposed shelving and expansive panes of glass piece together that modernist vibe.Meanwhile, the upgraded main bathroom with subway tiles, marble affect floors, and a deep tub adds a bit of class to that equation. For some, the equation could include an 'out with the old and in with the new' approach on a nicely sized block boasting a carport, established gardens and a generous frontage facing Leonard Street. But something tells us the 'old' is just too cool to pass up. More reasons why we love this home:- Just moments from the Linear Park Trail- Combustion fireplace to lounge room, and split R/C to master bedroom- Storage galore, including built-in robes to bedroom 1 and 2 - Private terrace access from bedrooms 1 and 2 - New tiled floors to spacious kitchen with double sink and servery to dining zone - Two bathrooms and a separate laundry - Just a short drive from Dernancourt shopping precinct - And so many more.
