The former Beecroft home of the late Mary Vernon, famous for being one of Sydney’s first female stockbrokers, is on the market through Ray White Beecroft.

Marketing agent, Douglas Macarthur, sold the home at 15 Wandeen Avenue in 2010 to the current owners for $1.376million.

“The owners have taken a lot of care in their renovations of the home and have created a modern residence without taking away from the property’s original charm.

“The double brick family home offers two distinct living areas as well as a separate lounge and dining area overlooking the front garden,” Douglas said.

For the owners home has afforded them both comfort and convenience.

"It is in a wonderful location. Just a short stroll to the supermarket, shops,cafes, restaurants and rail. Child care, playground and the school are also within walking distance. Its very child friendly with the family room opening into the back veranda and yard. Easy to keep an eye on the young ones as they play,” they said.

With Beecroft seeing substantial price growth in 2014, Douglas says he anticipates a strong marketing campaign

“Beecroft property prices grew by 35 per cent in the 12 months of 2014. Considering the 2010 sale achieved more than $1.3million, we anticipate buyer interest north of this figure,” Douglas explains.

Featuring three bedrooms, a separate office, two bathrooms and landscaped gardens, the property is set in a quiet cul-de-sac and offers a northerly aspect.

The property goes to auction on 7 March 2015 onsite at 1pm.
