Property details

A newly recreated semi full of light and style

The just completed transformation of this inner city worker's cottage by Bastian Architecture pays homage to the past while marking a new style chapter for a classic Victorian semi. Built c1884 and freestanding to the north, the redesign focuses on opening out the interiors to create a direct connection with the garden and maximise natural light with lofty vaulted ceilings and highlight windows harnessing the sunshine. Reclaimed bricks sourced from the site add warmth and texture to the entry hall while finishes in oak and stone create a unified feel across both levels. On a level 177sqm block with secure parking via Knight Lane, the four-bedroom home is set on a one-way street in the heart of Erskineville between the village hub and South King Street's eclectic dining and entertainment scene. Surrounded by pocket parks in a family friendly neighbourhood, this connected city fringe pocket is 700m to Sydney Park's open spaces and skate park with close proximity to Newtown, RPA Hospital and Sydney University.
