Rare Opportunity with Two Street Access and City Views Built in 1934, this gorgeous two storey residence draws inspiration from the French countryside, showcasing a rustic yet elegant style inside and out. Designed by architect Horace Driver and built for Robert David Young, this very special home will transport you back in time to an era of sophistication and charm. Situated on the southern side of Cracknell Road and with a north facing orientation and city views, Runnymede has only had two owners since it was first built in the early twentieth century as part of the Queenstown Estate, making this a truly rare and unmissable opportunity to own a home with unique character.Fronted by beautifully landscaped gardens and manicured hedges, the introduction to the home is a whimsical one. Upon entry, youre immediately met with a stunning interior reminiscent of the region of Provence, with wooden floors, exposed timber beams, vintage fixtures and embellished fittings. Lavish wallpaper adorns the walls throughout, with varied palettes and styles helping to create a distinct look and feel to each of the separate living rooms. Adjoining the entry hall is a lounge, complete with a fireplace and an internal door that guides you from one room to the next. In keeping with the theme, the kitchen also exhibits a country-style aesthetic that is understated and simple. With ample timber cabinetry, freestanding gas stove and plenty of benchtop space for meal preparation, this is a delightful culinary space. Completing the lower level is a quiet study located towards the front of the home, the first bathroom, and a dedicated laundry with exterior access to the rear of the property, where a lush garden sanctuary and sparkling in-ground pool await.
