6 Hampden Road, Russell Lea, NSW 2046

Sitting pretty amid established gardens, this freestanding family home is set on a sunny level dual access block right on the cusp of Drummoyne with beautifully proportioned interiors enhanced by elegant period features but it's the landscaped north-facing garden with entertainer's pavilion and sparkling pool that steals the show. Built c1916 and featuring rear access via Atkins Lane to double parking, 'Gilrose' is just around the corner from Lyons Road's cafe and dining scene and an easy 550m walk to Russell Park and the picturesque waterfront. A fluid layout from front to back is perfect for families while its generous 563sqm approx block offers plentiful room to extend with scope for a studio above the lock-up garage (STCA). Forming part of a tightly held row of elegant period residences, the three-bedroom home is 800m to Russell Lea Public School and just a few hundred metres to local favourites including Bakehouse, White Rabbit and Prima Cucina.
