A classic Australian Federation-style home, stylishly renovated to blend original charm with bold, designer interiors. At the centre of the home is a striking open-plan living area, styled with plush seating, a dramatic black feature wall, and seamless access to the leafy courtyard. Whether you’re watching a film, relaxing on the lounge, or enjoying the fresh air, it’s a space that brings people together.

The gourmet kitchen is both functional and stylish, featuring a sleek island, gas cooktop, Nespresso machine, French press, rice cooker, microwave, and everything needed for effortless home cooking. Just above, the elevated dining area invites relaxed meals around a glass-top table, softly lit by a sculptural pendant light. Outdoors, the sun-drenched courtyard offers a peaceful retreat with lush greenery and outdoor seating, perfect for morning coffee or laid-back alfresco meals.

Three queen-sized bedrooms are thoughtfully spread across two levels. Upstairs, two beautifully styled rooms sit beneath vaulted ceilings and shuttered windows, each featuring a queen bed and a generous walk-in wardrobe. Between them, a refined bathroom offers a generous walk-in shower, bespoke vanity, and elegant designer tiling. On the lower level, the third queen bedroom offers a dedicated workspace, ideal for remote days. A second full bathroom and a well-equipped laundry with washer completes the ground floor.

Comfort is assured year-round with split-system air conditioning and heating in all bedrooms and the main living area. Enjoy a curated selection of board games for downtime. For families, a high chair and a portacot are available on request. This home offers secure garage parking for two small to medium-sized vehicles, with a height clearance of 1.7 meters and an EV charger for added convenience. Additional free street parking is also available nearby. The garage can also be accessed from the courtyard.

Please be mindful when approaching the property. There’s a beautiful fig tree near the front footpath, but its roots have caused some uneven ground. Watch your step as you walk along the path to the house.
During your stay, you and your group will have the entire house to yourselves. Please make yourselves at home!

Sydney is a warm, urban city, and occasionally a bug or two may find its way inside, sometimes through a window or balcony door. This property has been professionally treated at the start of summer and a spray is provided as a backup. This can occur and is quite common in city homes, and does not reflect the cleanliness of the property. Thank you for your understanding.

Please note a $100 charge applies for guests bringing pets.
