Overview

33 Ruthven Street, Bondi Junction

Part of a landmark row of early 1900s gingerbread cottages, this beautifully renovated home reinterprets heritage charm through a fresh design lens in a prized setting just 400 meters from the Woollahra Gates to Centennial Park. The freestanding, north-facing, gable-fronted cottage reveals a surprisingly generous layout that unfolds over three levels while celebrating its architectural roots.

Behind the charming facade, the interiors have been recreated to balance vintage character with contemporary flair. Original details bring warmth and personality, while carefully curated finishes elevate the home's design credentials. A striking Emerald Green quartzite kitchen delivers a splash of colour and glamour, featuring European appliances, brass hardware and tapware, an Ilve gas cooktop, and Blum cabinetry.

The home offers three bedrooms, including a lofty main retreat on the upper level with high ceilings. The lower level includes a media retreat or rumpus room with plentiful storage, providing flexibility for work, play, or guest accommodation. The living room opens through French doors to a north-facing courtyard, perfect for relaxing and entertaining. Dining areas also open to the courtyard, with rear lane access to St James Reserve, a local gathering spot that adds to the village-like feel of this tightly held pocket near important amenities.

Additional features include kauri floorboards, high ceilings, and stained glass windows that enhance the Victorian streetscape bordering Centennial Park. The skylit designer bathroom includes a soaking tub, rainfall shower, and underfloor heating. There is a separate internal laundry with storage and a gas heating bayonet.

Located within the Woollahra Public School catchment, the property is conveniently situated 600 meters from the station and just 100 meters level stroll to Oxford Street cafes, Moonlight Cinema, and Westfield shopping centre.

Approximate quarterly outgoings include water rates of $368 and council rates of $437.
