Space and style with a brilliant studio surprise
In a leafy Kensington streetscape with parkland directly across the road, this double-storey home presents an outstanding family lifestyle opportunity thanks to its flexible floorplan, quality appointments and self-contained Airbnb studio at the rear.
Step inside to discover an impeccably-presented interior bathed in natural light showcasing a large main bedroom with WIR and double-vanity ensuite, as well as two additional bedrooms (BIRs), central bathroom and guest powder room (3rd WC).
Highlighting its generous proportions is a versatile study/retreat (upstairs) and spacious open-plan living/dining area accompanied by a stone-top kitchen with breakfast bench, large pantry, Smeg cooking appliances including induction cooktop, and Bosch dishwasher.
Other fine features of the home include ducted heating and evaporative cooling, motorised awnings, new carpets and double-glazed windows all-round, floating wooden flooring through ground level, as well as a full-size laundry and large attic storage area via retractable ladder.
Completing the picture is a sunny backyard with paved entertaining area, undercover front balcony with leafy outlook and remote-control garage to Rayner Lane behind, plus a self-contained studio above with its own kitchen, bathroom and private entrance (currently yielding approx $25K per annum through Airbnb).
Kensington Road buses around the corner along with JJ Holland Park, South Kensington Station (2 stops to town) and the new Kensington Community Aquatic & Recreation Centre, it’s also close to riverside trails, village shops, cafes and primary schools.
