Take a look inside this 1970s “Time Warp” Mosman apartment with a $1 million+ price tag.

Homes in original condition are almost a thing of the past in Mosman, but a rare example sometimes makes its way onto the local market.

Geoff Grist from Richardson and Wrench has just listed a time capsule property built in 1976, that has thrilled young buyers and downsizers looking for a perfectly preserved retro residence.

“We rarely come across these types of homes, and this one is absolutely immaculate,” Mr Grist said.

“Everyone who has seen it is amazed by the pristine condition, especially the kitchen.”

Orange and brown tiles, lino flooring, original oven and copper range hood have all remained intact, ever since the current owner moved in 34 years ago.

“It looks like it has been polished every day, in fact the home is one of the most spotless properties I’ve ever put on the market,” Mr Grist said.

Located on the middle-level of a three storey building, 5/1a Queen St is one of 12 apartments that immediately makes you feel “at home”, Mr Grist said.

“The living area easily accommodates a baby grand piano, which goes to show just how big it is.”

With 121 square metres on title, the two-bedroom property boasts a wrap-around balcony, a storage room, and a lock up garage.

“The flat is filled with natural light and a distant city outlook,” Mr Grist said.

“It is completely liveable now, ready to lease out, or you could plan to update at your leisure.”
