A heritage mansion formerly occupied by Alliance Francaise School was retained, restored and converted into two townhouses and the car park at the rear was developed with a new three-level apartment building. The entry to the new building is through the original arched heritage entryway via a panelled 'ante room', which then breaks into the new building at the rear, creating a rich contrast of heritage and modern design. Copper and timber cladding and angled wall planes compliment the colour and texture of the original brick and terracotta-roofed home featuring an uncompromising contrast of styles and form. A laser-cut art installation along the fence to the laneway designed by Martin Hodge provides screening as well as activating with the public.

Impeccably designed and sumptuously fitted, this stunning apartment in the prestigious Alliance Francaise development designed by Ascui Edwards Architects exudes style and sophistication. Featuring an expansive and light-filled free-flowing living/dining zone, entertaining is as easy outside as in with a private, all-weather balcony. The gourmet kitchen is superbly fitted with quality European Miele appliances, an integrated fridge and stone bench tops. Featuring one queen size bedroom with generous built-in robes, and a study desk. This stylish apartment is completed by a large bathroom and discreetly concealed Euro laundry, reverse cycle heating and cooling, secure under-cover parking for one car and a storage cage.
