Alexandria NSW 2015

The remnant frontage of a historic sandstone terrace has provided the architectural inspiration to create a truly remarkable home, showcasing a level of detail and craftsmanship that sets the home in a class of its own. A design philosophy inspired by east meets west delivers a soul soothing oasis of calm. On one of Alexandria's best streets, the narrative of the house reveals an exotic blend of Asian motifs and artisan finishes with intimate spaces for quiet retreat and social areas carved out of one fluid space, balancing aesthetic appeal with high-end functionality. The home features a striking dual level layout incorporating four bedrooms each with its own unique personality, three ensuites, a double shower guest bathroom including a self-contained studio retreat. Ceilings soaring more than 5m, glass wall with extensive internal glazing and exposed sandstock brick walls bring a dramatic sense of space. A lush skygarden and Zen-style courtyard achieve an intimate connection with nature and the outdoors. Exotic wallpapers and handpainted murals create an uplifting backdrop while polished concrete floors and minimalist steel staircase give the space a cool industrial vibe. Perfect for entertaining, this unique inner city retreat features rear lane access to garaging and is 4.5km to CBD, 4 train stops to Sydney Opera House. 750m to Sydney Park, 260m to Woolworths, 900m to Erskineville village and train station and bus-stop and 7 minute drive to Newtown shopping, bars, restaurants and cafes.
