35 Janet Street, Russell Lea

5 bed | 5 bath | 2 car

A statement of architectural excellence and crafted perfection, this newly built residence sets a new benchmark for contemporary luxury in Russell Lea. Designed by DCMC and built to exceptional standards, the home embodies the spirit of modern coastal elegance with an organic, sculptural form that feels both dynamic and timeless. Every detail has been meticulously considered, creating a residence that is as beautiful as it is functional to deliver a true sanctuary for entertaining, wellness and family life.

Architectural form meets organic flow 

From the moment you arrive, the home’s wave-like facade makes an unforgettable impression; a fluid play of curves and texture that reflects the nearby bay and establishes a seamless connection between architecture and landscape. Light dances across polished surfaces, while a sequence of circular skylights punches through all three levels, bathing the interiors in sunshine and creating a sense of movement and calm. 

A sculptural staircase winds gracefully through the home, complemented by a glass-framed lift that connects the garage to every floor, making daily life effortlessly convenient. The home’s striking geometry is softened by layers of natural material with Calacatta marble, French oak and aged brass chosen for their warmth, texture and timeless appeal. 

A private world of wellness and retreat 

Conceived as much for restoration as recreation, the home’s lower level is dedicated to wellness and leisure. A state-of-the-art home theatre offers the ultimate cinematic experience, while a gym or yoga room provides an inspiring environment to recharge body and mind. A five-bedroom layout delivers versatility for families at every stage with four large bedrooms with built-ins plus a family room on the upper level. Occupying its own wing, the parents’ retreat features a custom dressing room and a serene marble ensuite, its freestanding bath positioned to capture leafy outlooks and the morning light. On the top floor, a wet bar and terrace with sweeping district views create the perfect setting for sunset cocktails with water views out over Rodd Island. 

Design-led living and alfresco entertaining 

Every room tells a story of refinement and restraint. The ground level unfolds into a breathtaking open-plan living and dining space with an Escea fireplace and anchored by a chef’s kitchen worthy of a design magazine. A grand Calacatta Vagli island bench forms the sculptural centrepiece complemented by custom oak joinery and premium appliances seamlessly integrated for a clean, architectural finish. A butler’s pantry, PITT gas cooktop, Gaggenau appliances and Zip HydroTap combine style with functionality.  

Walls of glass open to a landscaped entertainer’s pavilion, complete with a built-in barbecue and heated mineral pool that shimmers in the light. The design creates a rare indoor/outdoor flow, the kind that transforms everyday living into a resort-style experience. From family dinners to large-scale gatherings, every space has been designed for connection, comfort and pure enjoyment. 

Luxury in every detail 

From its grand proportions to its carefully curated palette, this home is a triumph of design and craftsmanship. Polished brass detailing, bespoke lighting and seamless cabinetry underscore the level of thought invested in every finish. Bathrooms are masterpieces of stone and texture — beautifully resolved spaces that blend indulgence with simplicity. 

On a substantial 384sqm approx corner block, the home is grounded by lush, professionally landscaped gardens that enhance privacy and connection to nature. The showroom-style garage accessed via Undine Street is a feature in itself, with soaring ceilings and high-clearance parking that feels more like an exhibition space while VRV air, surround sound and Control 4 home tech affords ultimate ease of living.

Bayside living meets city convenience 

Positioned in one of Russell Lea’s most exclusive pockets, this address combines tranquility with exceptional convenience. The Bay Run is just 500m from the door, offering kilometres of foreshore walking and cycling tracks, while the cosmopolitan villages of Five Dock and Drummoyne are minutes away. Local cafes, artisan bakeries and waterfront parks define the neighbourhood’s relaxed rhythm, while sought-after schools and the City West Link make commuting effortless. 

Designed to inspire and built to endure, this is more than a home; it’s a statement of intent, a celebration of craft, and a vision of modern living brought vividly to life. From the bold architectural form to the smallest bespoke detail, 35 Janet Street, Russell Lea stands as a one-of-a-kind residence that redefines luxury on Sydney’s inner harbour peninsula.
