The Rochford penthouse

A private world above Erskineville, this sunny north-west corner penthouse combines house-like proportions with the freedom of a rooftop retreat in this multi-award winning building. Designed by Studio Johnston, the acclaimed building's elegant European sensibility finds expression in considered spaces that balance privacy with connection to the neighbourhood. Herringbone floors, exclusive to the penthouse apartments, and Italian marble finishes bring warmth and refinement to the interiors, complemented by a full-size bespoke limestone bathtub, while a huge landscaped 54sqm sundeck forms an alfresco room wrapped in wide open district views. A bistro-style kitchen with an outdoor bar makes morning coffee and evening cocktails equally inviting. The only two-bedroom residence on the top floor, alongside three tightly held three bedroom penthouses, it offers two large bedrooms including a master suite, with secure parking and storage completing 179sqm on title. Winner of the AIA Aaron Bolot Award and a 2018 Master Builders Award, The Rochford features a landscaped common rooftop garden with barbecue terrace, yoga platforms and herb gardens creating an oasis in the sky. Downstairs, cafes, pocket parks and pathways lead towards Erskineville village and Sydney Park, with the station 500m away and South King Street's eclectic dining and small-bar scene just 550m from the door.
