The creative reinvention of this grand Victorian terrace delivers inventive solutions to light and volume with a bold design that is not only glamorous but highly functional and a joy to live in. On a wide tree-lined street tucked away behind Balmain village, the three-storey home has been rebuilt from the ground up with a robust palette of materials and architectural aesthetic offset by the lush greenery of the landscaped gardens. Capturing panoramic city skyline views from the master suite, the home faces north with custom steel-framed pivot doors bringing in the sunshine and creating an inviting in/outdoor flow. A custom Italian Varenna Poliform kitchen with a monolithic island bench and soaring 4.4m ceilings serves as the social heart of the home and opens to a private entertainer's deck with leafy greenery all around and rear lane access to parking. Just 300m to Woolworths, this is one of Balmain's most desirable addresses, footsteps to village life and a quick trip to the city.
