Bold Campbell downsizer wows with high-end finishes

The epitome of minimalism and sophistication – that’s the best way to describe the home at 9 Truscott Street in Campbell.

But don’t let that conjure images of uninspiring whitewashed walls and minimal tones and textures – it’s quite the opposite.

The finishes will grab your attention first. Black powder-coated steel and exposed brick create a striking facade.

Inside, custom bespoke joinery, stone benchtops, large-format Italian tiles, plush carpet, block-out blinds, and sheer curtains catch the eye.

What binds them together are clean lines, the creative use of light – including a huge skylight at the entry and Velux electric operable skylights – and generous spaces.

Architecturally designed by Tynan Freeman, this property offers an intelligent use of space across 291 square metres of living and a 33-square-metre garage.

Multiple living areas cater to all buyer types. For example, the main bedroom sits conveniently on the ground floor, reducing the use of stairs if desired.

However, a secondary main suite with a private balcony, en suite and walk-in wardrobe is situated on the upper level if required for adult offspring who, given the current climate, may need to stay at home for a little longer than expected.

A rumpus room on the ground floor provides a flexible living space, while a breakout room upstairs can be used as a children’s retreat or fourth bedroom.

No detail has been spared with floor-to-ceiling triple-glazed, thermally-broken European windows throughout.

There are also three separate climate-control ducted heating and cooling systems, two electric water heaters and a smart-home security camera system.

The home currently has a price guide of $2.7 million.

Agent Theo Koutsikamanis of Bastion Property Group says offerings like this house, which are free-standing and allow buyers to downsize without compromise, are rarely found throughout the Inner North and South.

“The nature of its build blends well with Campbell’s established homes,” he adds.

As a suburb, Campbell is known for its tree-lined streetscapes, with excellent schooling options nearby and a great selection of cafes and restaurants virtually on your doorstep, such as Intra Cafe and Paranormal Wines.

The Australian War Memorial is walking distance while the city centre is just five minutes by car.

Recent sales in the area include a three-bedroom apartment at G02/6 Getting Crescent which sold for $1.785 million in March as well as a three-bedroom home at 39 Creswell Street, which sold under the hammer for $1.56 million in March.
