157 Cruikshank Street

Rather than merely renovated, this free standing Victorian has been completely re-born behind its timelessly attractive period image. Luxuriously appointed, larger than anticipated spaces include light-filled living/dining areas that feature gleaming Tasmanian Oak floor-boards and an open-plan kitchen in which Caesar-stone benches, meals island and smeg appliances convey exceptional contemporary quality. Bi-fold doors break the indoor-outdoor boundary and introduce an expansive Merbau entertaining deck that basks in northern light. Two downstairs bedrooms share a superb central bathroom finished in Italian porcelain, featuring Caesar-stone surfaces and imported fittings while upstairs two further bedrooms including a seductive main bedroom with sunny balcony surround a second, equally beautiful bathroom. A central study, TV den or retreat adds to the upstairs appeal and completes a faultless, just finished floor-plan with abundant storage and reverse cycle heating/cooling throughout. An over-size single garage accessed by a 5.2m wide rear lane is a convenient accompaniment to a location offering easy access to Edwards Park, Bridport Street cafes, the beach and the city.
