A masterclass in architectural renewal, the newly completed transformation of one of Balmain's grandest Victorian Italianate residences introduces a refined contemporary narrative that celebrates light, space and timeless materiality. Restored with integrity and rebuilt with precision, the 11m fronted home is set on a sun-blessed north-east facing block in a secret peninsula enclave home to only a handful of homes. A soft palette of warm neutrals bounces sunlight around the home while European Oak herringbone floors anchor the interiors and Lux White stone elevates the aesthetic with hints of gold inspired by the harbour at sunset. Designed to respond to the changing patterns of family life and opening to a landscaped north-facing courtyard, the five-bedroom residence features a choice of living areas, a self-contained suite ideal as guest/au pair accommodation and double parking. Peaceful and private yet just 700m to the city ferry, this historic pocket of Balmain is just up from the evolving White Bay precinct and surrounded by cult bakeries, artisan cafes and harbour parkland. - Grand manor-like Victorian residence built c1887- Rebuilt from the ground up, all new wiring/plumbing- 4 large bedrooms, including a studio suite - Master with a wide balcony, dressing room and ensuite- Elegant formal rooms with restored marble fireplaces- Herringbone Oak floors, 3.3m ceilings, multi-zoned air- Custom dine-in Italian kitchen with a breakfast island- Falcon range cooker, Liebherr fridge, Shaker joinery - Wraparound NE facing deck with a tranquil outlook - Sunlit casual living/family room opens to the garden - 4 luxurious Italian tiled bathrooms with underfloor heating- Brodware Organic Brass tapware, custom stone vanities - Guest powder room and a fully fitted internal laundry - Double parking, 28sqm lock-up garage with EV charger- Keyless entry, CCTV, indoor/outdoor lighting schemes
