Spacious quiet one bedroom apartment - the entire ground floor with a private garden and water viewswater vi

On offer is a spacious one bedroom apartment with a separate entrance. It occupies the entire ground floor of a 2 storey sandstone house. Built by a master mariner in the 1850`s, it overlooks Mort Bay and Me-Mel Island. It`s a 7 minutes walk to Thames Street wharf (BALMAIN wharf) for a F4 ferry to McMahons Point and Circular Quay in the CBD of Sydney.

The apartment is light-filled, relaxing and quiet with an established garden of frangipanis, hibiscus, native Australian plants and herbs. It is a home which is welcoming with plenty of atmosphere - art works, a library and a gas-heated lounge/dining room add a special quality of comfort. It is a cool apartment in summer.

The kitchen is contemporary and practical with exposed sandstone walls and a high ceiling. There is a choice of dining spaces - in the kitchen or dining room or on the garden terrace. The lounge room has a large timber dining table that is also excellent if you need to work from home. The WIFI is fast, secure and free. The large bedroom has a comfortable queen size bed with quality linen and towels. The bathroom has been renovated recently.

Transport to the city is convenient - 10 minutes by ferry from Balmain/Thames Street Wharf (F4) and 20 minutes by bus (No: 442). Excellent cafes and restaurants and Woolworths supermarket are all with an easy walk from the apartment.

I`ll upload the photos next.
