Architecturally designed to take full advantage of dazzling city views, the inspired reinvention of this freestanding worker's cottage strikes a perfect chord between heritage charm and high-end design. Rebuilt from the ground up retaining a sense of history while creating new, multifunctional spaces for contemporary living, the design honours the past by incorporating salvaged materials including repurposed sandstone and reclaimed bricks from the historic Bald Rock Hotel. These storied materials are juxtaposed with sleek contemporary finishes including burnished concrete floors and that sit alongside carefully selected fixtures and finishes sourced from around the globe. A family focused layout features four bedrooms including a luxurious master suite while the lower level is dedicated to living and entertaining with exposed beams and keystone laser-cut acoustic ceiling panels lending an industrial feel to the space. Opening to a landscaped garden, 'Magnolia cottage' is positioned in a village hotspot with Darling Street's cafe scene at one end of the street and Mort Bay Park and the ferry wharf at the other.
