Summary: NE Corner Penthouse of Arlington, 1967
Description: CONGRATULATIONS TO THE NEW CUSTODIANS. The prized NE Corner Penthouse of Arlington, Harry Seidler's 1967 masterwork in Edgecliff, is offered for only the second time. The current vendors purchased the building from the original owners, who had bought it pre-completion/off the plan. Specifically, they purchased the building's premier apartment from the original marketing, a three-bedroom, two-bathroom penthouse with the prized top-floor NE position and gun-barrel harbour views to Manly. The extra amenity is comprehensive: a deep north-facing balcony that functions as an outdoor room, two secure garage spaces and a storeroom. Seidler's celebrated "over-under" planning separates luminous living from quiet bedrooms to optimise cross-ventilation, privacy and outlook north-facing living above, sleeping/study rooms below. Considered upgrades bring warmth without compromising authenticity: oak herringbone parquetry across the upper level; a sensitively renewed kitchen and main bathroom; and retained Seidler bedroom joinery that keeps the original character intact. The main bedroom is generously sized; the other two bedrooms can be used as doubles or dedicated home offices. The address delivers daily practicality in one of Sydney's premier residential precincts: only a five-minute walk to Edgecliff Station, with rapid connections to Martin Place and the Sydney Metro network. Beaches and harbour baths are close at hand, with dining and retail across Double Bay and Paddington minutes away. A rare opportunity to secure a significant Seidler apartment whose structure, planning and aspect remain as compelling today as at completion. We look forward to welcoming you to this special property. - Tightly held secure building - Ideal N/NE orientation - Private and whisper quiet - Main bedroom with walk-in robe - Deep north-facing balcony - Gun-barrel harbour views - Considered upgrades: oak herringbone parquetry (upper level); renewed kitchen & main bathroom - Original Seidler in-built bedroom joinery - Original Seidler second bathroom - Triple-aspect, cross-ventilated; excellent natural light and privacy - 2 secure garage spaces (upper parking level) + storeroom; visitor parking - Walk to Edgecliff Station; close to harbour, beaches, and parks . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
