Last Listing description (September 2026)
A cute-as single-fronted cottage on first glance gives way to something gloriously architectural at its sunny rear, proving in the process that a modest parcel can live and feel larger than life in a character-laden, leafy suburb that's all about getting out and living within the city's grasp.
Peel back its pretty-in-white facade and the bold addition introduces itself almost immediately beyond the cottage's dual-arched hallway and three equally generous bedrooms, one cleverly edited to include a walk-in robe and fully-tiled ensuite.
The hallway, showcasing the home's impossibly high ceilings and Baltic pine floors creates a clean line of sight to the polished concrete floors and veil of glazing that define the addition's industrial cues and deep garden connection.
But it's the sculptural, in-situ concrete kitchen island, east-west clerestory windows and steeply pitched cathedral ceilings that truly set apart the 2016, underfloor-heated exclamation mark of this solidly built C1910 home.
Like walls of timber-framed glass, the rear doors slide over to completely blur the line between voluminous open-plan living, a rear entertainer's pavilion, open-aired patio and inch-perfect gardens.
The rest of the renovation keeps pace with the rear addition through two crisp, fully tiled bathrooms, frameless glazing, floating joinery, premium fittings and a suite of Smeg, Blum, Rinnai and Panasonic inclusions.
The clincher is Stepney itself, a tightly grained inner-east suburb where old cottages and leafy streets meet within minutes of The Avenues, Magill Road's eclectic bric-a-bracs, The Parade, Parklands and festival centric East End, giving this timeless cottage a postcode every bit as compelling as its new lease on life.
