104 Kurraba Road, Neutral Bay NSW 2089

Victorian landmark | north-facing courtyard | ferry footsteps | versatile six-bedroom layout This property offers a rare combination of period gravitas and contemporary liveability that is difficult to find in Neutral Bay. The north-facing rear orientation and sandstone courtyard create a private outdoor room that functions year-round, while the upper-level city and harbour views add a positional edge that few houses of this vintage can claim. The six-bedroom configuration, particularly the adaptable loft, suits a buyer needing both family accommodation and a dedicated work-from-home or guest space, and the multiple living areas reduce the need for future reconfiguration. For a buyer who values character, natural light, and proximity to the ferry, this house competes strongly against newer builds that often sacrifice garden space or ceiling height. The main risk is the price guide sitting at a notable premium over the 2015 sale, and the auction date is fixed, which limits negotiation leverage for a buyer who prefers a pre-auction purchase. The loft bedroom, while flexible, may not meet council definitions as a legal bedroom, which could affect future resale if a buyer requires a strict six-bedroom count. That said, the property has been upgraded with ensuites and a butler’s pantry, reducing immediate capital expenditure, and the land size of 477sqm in this location is inherently scarce. For a buyer who intends to hold for at least five years, this house should be treated as a long-term family home rather than a short-term flip, and the ferry access alone supports steady demand from professionals wanting a direct city commute
