55 Western Springs Road, Western Springs | The Locals at Ray White

FALL IN LOVE WITH A LOCAL LANDMARK
A magical mix of heritage romance and contemporary cool, this classic colonial style villa creates a compelling and memorable first impression. With its legendary annual bougainvillea display and vintage picket fence 'The White House' has earned its reputation as a Local Landmark with good reason. Not only commanding from the kerb, this expansive resort style home continues to deliver on every level as you step inside. Brimming with ornate features from the era, villa lovers will delight in the soaring ceilings, native timber floors, return veranda and original fireplaces. Freshly painted both inside out, the property unfolds over 194 sqm of expansive and elegant living with a flexible layout ideal for growing families.
Tastefully extended some 25 years ago, the newly renovated open plan kitchen, dining and living area dominates the rear with floor to ceiling slider doors opening out to your own inner city oasis, complete with luscious tropical gardens and pool. Open the secret trap door in the kitchen and discover a generous wine cellar for your own special collection with enough room for a subterranean sampling for two. It really is the home that keeps on giving, with oodles of storage and extra spaces that may not be obvious at first glance. Three double bedrooms, the recently upgraded family bathroom, separate laundry and an elegant formal lounge all flow off the gracious central hall on the grounds floor and the glorious master suite occupies a prime position overlooking the pool and gardens beyond. Upstairs a large, sun-drenched mezzanine provides an open plan double bedroom plus office/second lounge. Open a subtle door and you'll find another loft room with two single beds, perfect for kids sleepovers!
The substantial park-like grounds of just under 1000sqm are seriously impressive and provide a secluded sanctuary for the whole family to run, roam, play or relax. Proudly positioned on the northern ridge, all day sunshine is a given here with the desirable north facing aspect. A double garage, complete with more storage, provides room for the cars, boat or a work shop with extra off street parking outside. Morningside Precinct and Kingsland Village are just minutes away with their tantalising wining and dining establishments as are excellent transport links, the city cycle path and sought after schools. Wonderful in so many ways, this remarkable residence offers unparalleled city fringe living for all generations. Position yourself to embrace an extraordinary lifestyle and reap both the present and future rewards this Local Landmark presents.

[@unclaimedtreasure352]

Outside don’t go with inside too many modern updates but love the outside.

[@lilacoo7700]

[@godsentjesustosetusallfree9859]

Why do the owners keep selling the home within a short space of time?

[@moniquemartel450]

Non,,,,trop moderne,,,,,trop froid 😟😕😕

Surely a beautiful house on the outside with the colonial elements, but too modern on the inside. Doesn't match with its historical style and features.
