Landmark Midcentury Icon

Perched on the hillside, this iconic mid-century property is a local landmark, significant family home and currently utilised as a highly successful short term accommodation. Built in the early 1950s 50 Riseley Street has been lovingly renovated and restored to accentuate its Art Deco influences and to integrate the best of contemporary living practices.

The principal suite is complete with walk-in-robe, modern ensuite and ample room for a sitting area - all enjoying outlooks to the mountains or garden. The secondary bedrooms are also focused around the views.

The best successes of the property are in the masterful use of light and the welcoming-in of the panoramic vistas beyond. The timeless kitchen, dining and various living rooms are all oriented to capture sight-lines across the surrounding area, accentuating the elegant palette of timber, glass and clean white lines.

Beyond the obvious qualities of space and light, this home is unique in its provision of functional ancillary amenities. The generosity of the laundry, study, workshop and garaging is second to none, each providing spaces fit-for-purpose and that allow the shared spaces of the home to remain purely for enjoyment.

Whilst your eye will be drawn outward to the vista, this property is also grounded in mature and developing gardens. Complete with a swimming pool and pool pavilion, positioned to also capture the aspect, 50 Riseley Street is a lifestyle property suited to families and individuals who appreciate design, comfort and flexibility.

Prominent features of this property include:
• 1219m2 of land set across two titles
• panoramic views of the surrounding suburbs and hillsides
• striking architectural landmark property
• generous and flexible entertaining spaces
• large hybrid in-ground swimming pool and pavilion
• two separate powder room WCs
• original features including etched glass, custom mantel mirrors and surrounds
