Overview

Address upon request, Annandale

This rare freestanding Victorian terrace, dating back to the 1890s, has undergone a meticulous three-year restoration and enhancement, blending heritage craftsmanship with modern functionality. The residence preserves the original layout, honoring the legacy of its former long-term owner, reflected in the name 'Luise' adorning the facade.

Natural materials are thoughtfully integrated throughout the home, including mixed metal and timber details, stone, and hardwood floors, all chosen for their enduring texture and character. Vintage and antique elements are combined with innovative design features, such as a perforated brass window seat with embedded heating and cooling in the main living area. Each fixture and finish has been individually sourced to create a warm and cohesive atmosphere where each room is distinct yet harmoniously connected. A north-facing courtyard garden extends the interior space seamlessly.

The property boasts high ceilings with intricate plasterwork, original hardwood floors, and new custom timber doors with brass hardware. The restored traditional front living and dining areas feature Norwegian Rose and herringbone terracotta fireplaces. The galley-style kitchen combines Calacatta Viola marble with oak veneer cabinets, handmade terracotta flooring, and integrated appliances.

The main bedroom includes a lace balcony offering spectacular views of the city skyline with a cameo of the Harbour Bridge. Two additional bedrooms and a versatile family room with bi-fold doors open to a landscaped north-facing courtyard. Custom built-in robes, clever storage solutions, and carefully considered lighting enhance functionality, ambience, and sophistication.

The home includes a new combined bathroom and laundry on the ground floor, plus a luxurious upstairs bathroom featuring a bath and rain shower. Conveniently located moments from Booth Street shops, cafes, and dining options, it is just 300 meters to city buses at Johnston Street. The property is 450 meters from St Brendan's Catholic Primary School and is zoned for Annandale Public and Sydney Secondary College. It is also within 1.5 kilometers of the Rozelle Bay light rail, Glebe Foreshore Parks, and the popular Tramsheds precinct.
