The tasteful renovation of one of Russell Lea's signature Californian bungalows has created a stylish contemporary home in a family friendly neighbourhood opposite Sibbick Street Reserve between the Bay Run and Five Dock village. Capturing panoramic city skyline views from the upper level, the double-fronted home's flexible layout is ideally suited to the changing patterns of family life with a master suite designed to function as a parents' retreat with an adjoining fifth bedroom/home office or nursery. Soaring ornate ceilings serve as a gracious reminder of the past while an entertainer's kitchen and huge living space opens out to a private landscaped garden with full-width deck conceived as an alfresco lounge for year-round outdoor living. Just 700m to Russell Lea Public School, the impeccably appointed classic is perfectly located to enjoy a relaxed bayside lifestyle an easy 550m walk to Five Dock Park and footsteps to Lyons Road's dining hub.
