42 Simmons Street, Newtown

Impressive in both its gracious proportions and traditional Victorian grandeur, this landmark freestanding terrace makes a refined family residence of character and distinction. It combines spacious interiors, retained period details and landscaped outdoor areas to deliver a home of enduring quality on a 392sqm (approx) corner setting in the heart of Newtown.

A large floorplan includes formal lounge and dining rooms plus high ornate ceilings, polished timber floors and ornate working fireplaces. There is a separate family room or casual living space that overlooks the gardens plus a modern gourmet kitchen and period-style bathroom with clawfoot bathtub. Upstairs are 4 bedrooms each open onto a balcony and include a large main with fireplace + second period-style bathroom. There is also an attic storage room and a downstairs library that could be used as a fifth bedroom.

A major highlight of the property is the oversized double garage plus additional parking space that is accessed from Sloane Street. The home is embraced by a beautifully landscaped garden that features private entertainment areas and sunlit level lawns.

Very few properties can offer so much in terms of size, character and lifestyle. This warm and inviting home is set in an elevated position and makes an exclusive family haven within walking distance to the area's quality schools, fine dining and host of cafes at Newtown and Enmore.
