With sleek updates to Barry Hobin's unique design, the modern urbanite can check everything off their list of coveted must-haves. A sought-after location, smart, bright interiors, a sense of history among Crichton's tree lined streets and nearby verdant parks, and finally - the quintessential village vibe on Beechwood Avenue to open and close your daily routine.

On approach, a perennial garden welcomes, framing bay windows and promising further delights inside. You won't be disappointed. On entry, the vestibule handles seasonal gear, and the bay window's dividends are realized - find a sunny, flexible space. Whether home office or guest room, occupants overlook the front garden, and access a freshly updated full bathroom. All needs are met.

Entertain or curl up with a good book in the living room - geometric transom and cathedral ceilings make it a chic place for either. Winter months have the linear gas fireplace vying for your attention. A few steps up, the dining room answers hosting duties - with a half wall overlooking the living room; it's the perfect spot for good conversation and a bottle of Cabernet. On-trend cabinetry pairs with open shelving for a cool, scandinavian feel in the kitchen - extra storage and laundry contained behind oak. Sweeten slow mornings with patio access, or save the daydreaming for the eat-in area; a great view of Crichton street via the bay window as inspiration.

Upstairs, smart design leads the way. A window-laden bedroom leads into a convenient ensuite; pocket door separating from the full bathroom adjoined to the master. Creative design reigns. Cool powder blue tiles meet with polished, clean lines and chrome finishes - set your tone for the day. In the master suite, a skylight and vaulted ceiling are visual pleasers that compete only with the wall to wall closet space - wardrobe conundrums solved.

Brilliant architecture from the best in town, a neighbourhood where you might spot the Prime Minister out for a bike ride, the city centre a quick walk away - why would you want to live anywhere else?
