Overview

RIVERVIEW: HERITAGE REDEFINED

Positioned in one of Birchgrove's most exclusive waterfront enclaves, just up from Balmain Sailing Club, the aptly named 'Riverview' stands as a bold statement of the past that's been fearlessly reimagined for the future. This Birchgrove icon began life as a fisherman's cottage c1880 and has undergone a striking redesign that masterfully updates heritage with contemporary edge, injecting serious style and vitality into every corner. Built to own its vista, this two-storey statement sits confidently on a sun-drenched corner block with commanding northerly views over Cockatoo Island as a mesmerising, ever-shifting backdrop. The design's genius lies in its seamless flow between meticulously landscaped gardens, a showstopping mineral pool with waterfall feature, and a sophisticated two-bedroom studio that flexes between guest accommodation, creative workspace, or premium garaging conversion, because ordinary options aren't an option here. Step outside to claim the harbour foreshore, Birchgrove Wharf beckons in one direction, while Elkington Park and the legendary Dawn Fraser baths await in the other. - Prime dress-circle waterfront territory, 300m to Birchgrove Oval - Commanding sunny corner block with rare dual street frontage - 4 sanctuary-style bedrooms on one level, 3 with private ensuites - Master suite with walk-in dressing room and secluded walled garden - Statement kitchen in Statuario Maximus marble, premium Miele appliances - Induction cooktop with integrated downdraft, Vintec wine storage - Cathedral-ceiling living flooded with light, integrated study nook - Seamless bi-fold access to Cockatoo Island view-deck - Entertainer's deck where harbour panoramas steal every scene - Resort-style landscaped gardens framing the sun-soaked mineral pool - Self-contained studio offering ultimate spatial flexibility - Guest cottage with effortless garage conversion potential - Designer bathrooms, underfloor heating, sophisticated powder room - Actron ducted climate system, future-ready EV charging - Cutaway in kerb with option for off-street parking and LUG (STCA) - 400m to Charlotte Cafe, 550m to the Riverview Hotel
