32 Eastern Arterial Road, St Ives

This much-loved mid-century home nestled in the leafy enclave of St Ives, is an exemplar of modernist Australian architecture. Retaining its 1950s spirit, the property has been elevated by a sensitive yet transformative renovation by award-winning Sydney-based firm CO-AP Architecture. Bathed in natural light, beautifully preserved original features, an all-new kitchen and impeccable master ensuite bring a design-led edge to 32 Eastern Arterial Road.

The expansive entry level welcomes you with high ceilings that set the tone for the generous proportions and flexible floor plan throughout the home. Distinct living and bedroom wings, original timber-frame picture windows, Cyprus floorboards and modernist brickwork celebrate the sleek aesthetic and material sensitivities of mid-century design principles without compromising on contemporary conveniences.

Kitchen, dining and living zones unfold effortlessly onto an expansive rear deck, complete with the original exterior fireplace, to overlook a garden patio and lawn. The reimagined kitchen pairs clean-lined functionality with bold material choices: dual Smeg ovens and cooktops, stainless steel benchtops and custom cabinetry delivering generous storage. An iconically mid-century brick feature wall extends from the dining room through to the deck, reinforcing the home's architectural rhythm.

Oriented to the north-east the living room is anchored by a working log-burning fire and garden views though both the North and South windows, to create a calm and meditative space.

The newly renovated master suite is a serene sanctuary with custom timber cabinetry and a stunning mid-century inspired ensuite by CO-AP Architecture. Two additional bedrooms with built-in wardrobes occupy the adjacent wing, complemented by a discreet separate WC and a charming pink bathroom with preserved retro appeal.

Downstairs, a generous media and library room with polished concrete floors opens to the garden patio, offering flexibility as a parents' or teenagers' retreat. A separate studio and study provide further adaptable space. Outside, the garden is framed by a low wall, beyond which the property continues.

Defined by its authentic character and thoughtfully integrated modern enhancements, 32 Eastern Arterial Road presents a rare opportunity for buyers seeking timeless mid-century architecture, contemporary comfort, and the versatility to evolve with their lifestyle.
