The house is a three storey terrace located on a quiet tree lined
street on the side of a valley in the popular suburb of Bondi Beach,
about ten minutes walk from the beach and the many cafes and shops
that give Bondi its character.

The house is one of a pair of ninety year old terraces and was
completely renovated by the interior designer owner in 2001 to
capture the maximum amount of light and charm. You enter down the
stairs from the street into the main living level with sitting room,
dining room, stainless steel kitchen, large sunny lounge room and
deck running in an open plan layout from front to back.

Upstairs is the enormous master bedroom with its own ensuite and a
second family bathroom serving the second and third bedrooms which
are separated from the main bedroom by a landing. The master bedroom
with a queen size bed and mirrored wardrobes feels a bit like a tree
house as it looks out over the garden through the branches of a
large Camphor Laurel tree. The second bedroom with a double bed has
its own verandah overlooking the street while the third bedroom with
two single beds offers access to the attic via a drop down ladder.

Down a narrow staircase from the main living level is the ground
floor containing another bathroom, a large office, another deck and
the small back yard with an outdoor shower and basketball ring. The
office doubles as a fourth bedroom, with a fold out double sofa bed.

The house is modern and comfortable with abundant character courtesy
of its unusual renovation, eclectic furniture and an interesting
array of items picked up by the owners on their travels. There is a
wide screen digital TV with DVD/CD player, a log fireplace for the
winter and a choice of areas to sit and chat or lie around and read.
A well equipped bookcase separates the sitting room from the entry
passage. The kitchen is equipped with a dishwasher, large
refrigerator and gas range with electric oven. An espresso coffee
machine is available when you simply can’t be bothered to go out for
coffee, although Bondi boasts some of the best cafes in Sydney.

"Bondi" is said to be an Aboriginal word meaning "water breaking
over rocks". Bondi Beach is one of the most famous beaches in the
world and is visited by over two and half million people a year.
It’s one kilometre stretch of sand can be covered by up to 40,000
people at one time. Bondi Beach is unique. It has a life and
personality that reflects its diverse population. From local
surfers, to young people who live in Bondi, to backpackers from all
over the world who dominate the scene, to multi-cultural
communities, Bondi has it all. In summer, the beach becomes the
playground for families. Bondi offers beautiful coastal walks, white
sand, crashing surf, and lazy days. Great strip shopping lines all
the small back streets where the locals like to hang out and drink
coffee. Stumble upon organic food stores and cafes, eco friendly
clothing and gift stores, captivating jewellery stores and the
famous Bondi Markets (Sundays).

Sydney Airport is a twenty minute drive away, with a taxi costing
around $50 each way. The Sydney central business district is about
fifteen minutes by bus, with excellent shopping available in the
nearby Bondi Junction.
