34 St James Road, Bondi Junction.

The newly completed reinvention of this parkside terrace celebrates light, air and materiality to create a welcoming haven in a leafy cul-de-sac enclave just off Oxford Street and only 400m to the Woollahra Gates of Centennial Park. Built c1900 and forming part of a landmark row of gable-fronted cottages, the two-storey home is grounded by a soothing, natural palette, while Venetian plaster walls and a series of skylights infuse the interiors with a beautiful sense of luminosity. Set over two levels and opening to a Mediterranean-inspired courtyard, the four-bedroom layout offers exceptional flexibility, with a lower-level bedroom ideal as a lounge or media room and a fourth bedroom perfectly suited as a study or nursery. Air conditioning provides year-round comfort throughout. In the catchment for Woollahra Public School and just footsteps to James Reserve Playground, this reimagined terrace is perfectly positioned for the active, outdoor-loving family, moments from the park's cycleways, picnic spots, Wild Play Garden and Moonlight Cinema, and only 800m to Bondi Junction station and Westfield. - Recreated from the ground up and bathed in natural light - Stylish entry, neutral floorboards, Venetian plaster walls - 4 bedrooms, 3 with built-ins plus a study or ideal nursery - Main bedroom with a window seat and open district views - High-spec marble kitchen with integrated Miele appliances - Fluid open plan living and dining, hideaway cocktail bar - Custom joinery, Ecosmart fireplace, ambient lighting scheme - Crazy paved entertainer's courtyard with rear lane access - 2 Parisi-appointed bathrooms with custom marble vanities - Main with a bath and shower, 2nd with a double shower - Separate internal laundry, air conditioning and plentiful storage - Woollahra Public School catchment, 400m to Centennial Park Approximate Quarterly Outgoings: Water Rates: $233 | Council Rates: $435
