Last Listing description (August 2023)

The newly-approved six-bedroom DA plan is a result of a 2-year collaboration with the award-winning architect CO-AP and bespoke landscape studio Secret Gardens.

The plan redefines city terrace living. Thoughtful design has enabled a sustainable, solid, and classic house with natural ventilation throughout, well-controlled natural light, absolute privacy, and massive internal space in the heart of Sydney City.

The serene central courtyard with mounted garden is living art, providing an opportunity to pause, reflect and bring peace to life. A generous open plan kitchen/dining and living space are relocated to the first floor, looking out to a sculptural succulent garden and expansive city skyline views. A perfect place to entertain family and friends. Uninterrupted city views from the attic bedroom.

The plan also delivers an independently accessible second dwelling for extended families or as an income generator.

Once a grocer's shop and later a coffee shop, this house with two front doors to Palmer Street also provides commercial possibilities for a mixed use as both luxury home and private gallery/office/showroom (STCA).
Freshly renovated, this spacious and sunny terrace is move-in ready.
