Overview

Historic charm meets parkside serenity

Dating back to circa 1882, this two-storey terrace is one of the earliest homes in Glebe, offering a unique blend of historic charm and modern comfort. Nestled in a quiet and leafy pocket, the property backs onto John Street Reserve, providing a serene and private outlook surrounded by lush greenery. The home’s interiors have been tastefully renovated to combine period features with contemporary design, creating a welcoming and comfortable living environment across two levels.

The living and dining areas flow seamlessly into a designer kitchen and family zone, featuring wide French doors that open onto a tranquil north-east facing courtyard. This outdoor space is perfect for relaxation and entertaining, enhanced by the peaceful park backdrop. Upstairs, the two generously sized bedrooms serve as private retreats, with the main bedroom boasting cathedral ceilings and a balcony overlooking the park, evoking a treetop sanctuary ambiance.

Located in a family-friendly and community-oriented neighborhood, this property offers convenient access to local amenities. It is just 800 meters across Harold Park to the vibrant Tramsheds dining precinct and a short walk to the village hub of Glebe Point Road. The quiet street experiences minimal through traffic, contributing to the great neighborhood atmosphere.
