131A Forest Road, Arncliffe, NSW 2205

131A Forest Road offers a rare opportunity to purchase an iconic mid-century design close to the city. In fact, south of the Harbour, it is the closest Beachcomber to the CBD. The sleek lines of the ‘modernist box’, an ideal 3-bed floor plan, and elevated city views to Ku-ring-gai National Park make this house a true hidden gem in every sense.

Hidden on a 714.5 sqm battleaxe block, this celebrated design sits on steel posts over a level area once a tennis court. Accessed down a shared driveway from Forest Rd, or a handy side gate leading to the steps down to Station St, its position ensures almost complete privacy and no street noise from Forest Rd.

Its design maximizes its NE aspect, enjoying an abundance of natural light from the large swathes of glazing. The orientation allows for solar gain in the cooler months, and the wide eaves protect from the sun in the summer months. Along with the cooling NE breezes in summer and good cross ventilation, this house feels easy-breezy any time of year.

Upon entering the house, it simply makes you smile. The feeling is immediately welcoming and makes one realise why its architect, Nino Sydney, is rightly hailed “the hero of suburbia.”

We look forward to welcoming you to a home that epitomises the timelessness of good design.
