An extraordinary dual-residence in Bowral's most sought after location
In a class of its own, this superb offering comprises two beautiful residences within a stunning private garden setting, located in Old Bowral's most prestigious and tightly held precinct. Diagonally opposite Bradman Oval and mere footsteps to Bowral town centre, 17 St Jude Street represents a rare lifestyle opportunity with passive income potential.
The single level primary residence is an exquisite original double-brick Californian bungalow with all the hallmarks of traditional beauty: decorative high ceilings, polished timber floorboards throughout and a flexible floorplan spilling into the sun-drenched gardens which are showcased from every room. This four-bedroom, two-bathroom home, with a fabulous front entertaining verandah and views across to Bradman Oval, has an abundance of charm.
The delightful private secondary dwelling sits seamlessly adjacent to the primary residence, within its own glorious garden setting. This two-storey idyllic gem, with panoramic views to Mount Gibraltar, comprises three bedrooms and two bathrooms; however, with three distinct entrances, it has a clever flexible design enabling multiple simultaneous accommodation options, including housekeeper, nanny, extended family, guests, work from home or AirBnB. At the front of the residence, a workshop is discretely tucked away behind original barn doors with vintage glass panels, as stepping stones lead to a secondary side entrance.
