Inspiring Two Storey Duplex

Exceptionally well maintained since purchased new in 1992, this Phillip Reid designed
two storey duplex has a poised and mannered attitude about it. Great attention to detail
has been made to the workability of the layout for smooth transitions from function to
function. Two living areas, formal at the front and casual entertaining at the back, allow
for multiple lifestyle demands to run concurrently. The internal access from the SLUG
fans 3 ways to the formal lounge, upstairs to the 3 bedrooms, WIR, built-ins, ensuite
and main bathroom, and ahead to the living area. The side deck from the internal
laundry, adjacent to the kitchen, participates in the meditative quality of the brick
feature wall, and simultaneous allows northern light into the dining and casual lounge
area. Glass sliding doors open onto a terracotta tiled verandah and frame a gorgeous
private garden with an intriguing brick entertainment platform bounded by flora that
positively sings with green and colour from bird of paradise, maple, scented magnolia,
port wine magnolia, lilli pilli, clivia, birds nests, ivy cover, mondo grass, camellia and
mature trees that grant absolute privacy and leafy greenness especially to the upper
bathroom. Timber lined ceilings and matching cabinetry are a motif judiciously applied
through the house. The kitchen inspires the creation of culinary delights for family and
guests, employing the ample bench space, dishwasher and Tudor 4 burner gas cooktop.
The main bathroom is quite roomy and has a wide vanity, good bath and shower, and
separate WC, while the shower ensuite is more compact. The front double bedrooms
share a verandah that view a neatly clipped buxas hedge English maze, and the pleasant
quiet street. Located out of the busyness of Hornsby, yet so convenient for non-drivers
with plentiful public transport just a few minutes walk away. Asquith is known by the
number, variety and accessibility to schools, shops, transport, parks & recreation
options.
