Home Description
Description of the home
A beautifully renovated 4 BR 2 Storey Terrace located in a peaceful, tranquil and leafy pocket of streets in a small suburb called Charing Cross. It is wedged between Queens Park, Bronte, Bondi Junction, Clovelly and Waverley and a 10 to 12 minute walk away from most of the Eastern suburb's finest features.
Victoria St Waverley is centrally located to public transport (buses 313, 350, 379 & 390X connecting Bondi junction train (just 3 stops away). The 350 bus connects to domestic airport in 40 mins via Maroubra and runs every 10 to 15 minutes daily.
The shopping strip of Charing Cross is only a 400 m stroll away and has over 50+ shops catering for most needs (including 2 pubs and a Leagues club) plus Bondi Junction Westfield is only a 10 minute walk or 3 bus stop journey away.
Queens & Centennial parks, Waverley Oval gardens, Bronte, Bondi, Tamarama & Clovelly beaches, shops and public transport are a short walk 5 to 10/12 minute walk.
Fully equipped home with all furnishings needed to be comfortable i.e family, dining room, exceptionally large fully equipped kitchen, courtyard, BBQ and outside setting on raised deck. All bills (NBN internet wi-fi, netflix, gas, electricity & water) are included. Contributions for cleaning materials, laundry and toilet are your only extra occasional outlay.
Palm trees at back and front trap the sea breezes from Bronte Gully which cool and ventilate the house. Skylights and sliding french doors open out to the courtyard and outdoor lounges. Lots of glass help illuminate the terrace to make it bright, airy, relaxing and peaceful. In winter they allow natural sunlight to warm up the home so we rarely need to use the gas heater and / or open fireplaces to heat indoors.
The fully furnished room at the rear of the second Storey, is ideal for either a longer-term student (Anna was 1 year, Riccardo was 9 months) or a professional (Lilly was here 3.5 years before she got married, ironically to an Italian). The room is ideally set up to WFH, as required.

I am self employed with a start up business (Retire to Asia) and I enjoy travelling, wine & food, sports (AFL- Richmond and Sydney swan supporter). I play golf regularly through the week and on weekends and am also writing my first major travel series of books plus a couple of personal projects. I do this in and around, golf, travelling (In SE Asia 2 to 3 months a year sporadically, and building up our business, Retire to Asia.
Gemma is easy going, enjoys cooking, food & wine. Currently she is working in the Health Services Industry. Her efforts to keep the house neat and tidy are much appreciated. She alternates between working from home and her own home office on a 2/3 day per week basis (Mon -Fri).
Francesco is our resident Italian hairdresser, who works close by in Bondi Junction. When he is not busy at work, he loves to just relax and cook for his friends and housemates.
Post Covid we alternate working from home at various times with Gemma and Francesco going into their offices / work on a full time and periodical basis, with me out on the golf course or writing from home whenever I am not overseas travelling in SE Asia (2 to 4 months a year). I maintain a separate home office from the house, where I work from.
Our NBN connection (included in your weekly rent) is able to cater for this quite comfortably and there are at least 6 separate work zones within the house to facilitate this excluding each bedroom.
We are all originally from out of town and like to think that we are quite relaxed, easy going, tidy, considerate and thoughtful. As we all lead busy lives it is nice to come home to a great space and debrief the day if necessary. over a glass or two of wine.
We all love cooking and the modern gallery style kitchen with a huge 5 metre bench space allows this to be done simultaneously on occasions.
It is a fully equipped home that feels like home. Five gas hotplates, electric fan forced oven, microwave oven, bench top air-fryer and a couple of blenders make this quite easy to do.
