Gracious and Substantial Family Home Offered for the first time in 37 years the beauty and grandeur of this superb family residence 'Attunga', envelops you as you walk in the door. Extended and enlarged over time to suit the changing needs of its owners, what was once a charming California bungalow is now an elegant and expansive home of impressive proportions, capable of housing any family combination in total comfort. Exceptional street appeal draws you in via the manicured front garden and sandstone stairway, which lead up to the welcoming entry, foyer and large front terrace. A myriad of original features add to the period ambience, including decorated ceilings, picture rails, and ornate cornices. The lower floor plan comprises a central formal living room surrounded by formal dining, a study, and a spacious L shaped kitchen with stainless steel appliances, timber bench tops and adjacent casual dining. Double French doors lead to the rear garden, which includes a substantial lawn and paved terrace, perfect for socialising. Also on this level is a spacious master bedroom with walk in wardrobe and smart en suite bathroom with French doors allowing private access to the front terrace. And finally, a guest bathroom, separate wc and generous laundry are located in a wing at the rear. The heart of the upper floor is an informal living area, which opens to a balcony overlooking the back garden. Six bedrooms are located on this level, including three with built in wardrobes. Any of these upper rooms could also operate as a study, playroom/rumpus, media room or nursery. Two generous family bathrooms on this floor reduce the likelihood of arguments during the morning rush.There's a double garage with remote control door, built in workbench and plenty of storage space. Within the home, a wine cellar is accessible via the floor in the downstairs study and there's a shed in the rear garden. Vehicular access to the rear garden is possible via a side driveway. The home's proximity to Stockland Balgowlah and shopping village is belied by its quiet location, which is as peaceful and serene as any suburban cul de sac. The local school is a short walk away, a choice of beaches are a few minutes drive and city buses stop on Sydney Road, easily accessible by a laneway at the top of the street.
