223 Old South Head Road, Bondi

Tucked away amid lush tropical gardens, this unique Bondi residence offers an exceptional sense of privacy and tranquillity. Discreetly positioned on an approximately 335sqm parcel with dual street access, the home reveals a striking blend of warehouse-inspired architecture and relaxed beach house charm. Dramatic double-height ceilings and a creative split-level design deliver an impressive sense of space and light throughout this distinctive freestanding family sanctuary. Conveniently located near the corner of Flood Street, the home enjoys an unexpectedly peaceful setting-perfectly positioned between the coastal lifestyle of Bondi Beach and the vibrant retail precinct of Bondi Junction, with easy access to transport, schools, parks and places of worship. Recently refreshed and bathed in natural light, the home features two kitchens, four generous bedrooms (three with built-ins) and two contemporary bathrooms, including a master retreat and a sun-drenched balcony overlooking the private courtyard garden. The expansive open-plan living and dining area is crowned by dramatic warehouse-style ceilings and skylights that flood the interiors with northerly sunlight, flowing seamlessly to a sheltered terrace ideal for alfresco entertaining. The granite gas kitchen, appointed with stainless steel appliances and a 900mm chef's-grade cooker, adjoins a sunken, glass-framed family room with a built-in daybed-overlooking the palm-lined courtyard and rooftop sun terrace. A versatile mezzanine space on the upper level provides an ideal setting for a home office, media lounge or rumpus area. Additional highlights include a large internal laundry with ample storage, polished timber flooring, fresh paint and carpet throughout, reverse-cycle air conditioning and an automatic double lock-up garage with access via New Street.
