Positioned just minutes from the city centre, ‘Ormsby’ presents a rare and enchanting opportunity to secure a beautifully preserved character home. Built in the early 1950s with strong Art Deco influences, this delightful residence features soaring 9-foot ceilings, traditional lath and plaster walls, and fascinating original details that have been lovingly maintained over the decades.

Privately tucked behind a mature Hawthorn hedge and elevated to capture leafy views, a winding sandstone path leads you through the gardens to the discreet side entrance. Stepping inside, you’re greeted by an impressive staircase, a wide welcoming hallway, and beautiful timber floors that add timeless warmth to the home.

The elegant formal lounge, located to the right, enjoys abundant morning light through large picture windows and is fitted with custom-built bookcases and cabinetry. Opposite, the formal dining room is equally inviting, featuring French-style doors that open onto a charming sandstone entertainment terrace, the perfect place for gatherings or a quiet moment in the sun.

Retaining its original character and offering excellent storage, the spacious kitchen connects seamlessly to a casual living area designed for everyday comfort. The master bedroom and the family bathroom are located on the main level, while upstairs reveals a private retreat with two generous attic-style bedrooms and a separate study. Each room enjoys charming windows, ample storage, and unique views across the historic suburb and surrounding bushland.

At the rear of the home, a purpose-built structure houses the laundry and an additional toilet, overlooking the level backyard and sandstone terrace with built-in seating. Under the home, a huge storage room with side access sits alongside the garage, offering further practicality.

Located in a tightly held and highly sought-after pocket close to quality schools, cafes, and the CBD, ‘Ormsby’ blends character, comfort, and exceptional convenience, with further value to be unlocked through thoughtful refurbishment.
