Versatile Residence

Separate two-bedroom upper residence with vaulted decorative ceilings and leadlight

From the moment you arrive, 1 Taringa Street makes an impression. Grand in scale, rich in character and wonderfully individual, this substantial Ashfield residence is the kind of home that reveals something special at every turn.

The main residence delivers beautiful period detail and exceptional proportions, with soaring decorative ceilings, leadlight windows and rich timber joinery creating warmth and personality throughout. The four bedrooms are genuinely spacious, while multiple formal and casual living and dining areas give the home an incredible sense of space. At the rear, the home opens to a covered alfresco area and expansive backyard, complemented by rear lane access to a double garage.

Then there’s upstairs — and it’s a feature in itself. Currently configured as a completely separate two-bedroom residence, it has its own personality and an abundance of character. Beautiful vaulted decorative ceilings, striking leadlight windows, timber floors and generous living and dining spaces create a residence that feels substantial in its own right, complete with its own kitchen and bathroom.

The versatility here is exceptional. Leave the two residences separate for extended family, multi-generational living or additional accommodation, or bring the two levels together to create one magnificent six-bedroom family home of truly impressive scale.

This is not your everyday Ashfield home. It has size, soul and architectural character in abundance, with a flexible configuration that makes the possibilities almost as impressive as the home itself.
