12 Robinson Street, Chatswood

Offering desirable combinations; serenity and convenience, period character and modern practicality, move in ready and room to add value.

Serenity and convenience. This freestanding Federation home sits on a quiet, leafy stretch of Chatswood’s premier street, and has been with the same family for over 34 years. Despite the peaceful setting, Bales Park is 200m away, with cafés, restaurants and city buses at 450m. Chatswood Chase is 750m away and Chatswood Station 1.2km, putting the Metro and the Sydney CBD within easy reach. The home is in the catchment for Willoughby Public School, Willoughby Girls High School and Chatswood High School.

Period charm and modern practicality. Built in double brick, the home keeps the details that define the era: high ceilings, picture rails, decorative cornices and three fireplaces. Alongside them are the practical things character homes often lack: a double lock-up garage, a high front fence for privacy and security, and reverse-cycle air conditioning to the front rooms. Everything is on a single level, with oversized bedrooms, two bathrooms, a spacious dine-in kitchen with an oversized pantry, and a formal dining room. Established gardens catch northern sun through the day.

Move in ready and room to add value. Fresh paint and new flooring mean you can move straight in. Over time, update the kitchen and bathrooms or undertake a more substantial transformation (STCA) on the 494sqm block with its 15.17m frontage.
