Overview

Mid-century magic with 180-degree bay views

Anchored on the eastern shores of the Balmain peninsula, this mid-century marvel commands uninterrupted 180-degree views across Mort Bay from three sunlit levels. Perched above the iconic Waterview Wharf Workshops, whose colourful heritage facades form part of the celebrated waterfront scene, the north-west facing home enjoys an immersive connection to the harbour, with the sparkling water animating the indoor and outdoor living spaces and serving as an ever-changing backdrop. Offered for the first time since its completion in 1978, the 8m-wide residence has been sympathetically updated retaining its authentic modernist design principles. Airy interiors celebrate space, light and simplicity with lofty raked ceilings, whitewashed brickwork and extensive glazing drawing the views deep into the home. Designed to engage with the vista, whole-floor living space opens to a sunny level garden where the harbour forms a virtual extension of the lush lawn. A flexible five-bedroom layout features a top floor devoted to a parents' retreat with a view-swept ensuite and rooftop terrace, while a generous double garage is a rare asset on the peninsula. In one of Balmain East's most tightly held waterfront pockets, it's just 550m to the ferry for a relaxed 15-minute trip into the city. - Peaceful setting on a tightly held harbourside cul-de-sac - Rare opportunity, purchased in 1978, first time offered - Robust double-brick build and an 8m frontage to the vista - Lush garden entry, double lock-up garage (internal access) - Wide entry hall and bright interiors, sunny NW rear aspect - Newly refreshed interiors and a spacious tri-level layout - 4 bedrooms all with built-ins and unobstructed water views - Top floor master with a sitting room, ensuite and balcony - Large timber-topped gas kitchen with a garden outlook - Sunlit living and dining rooms, reverse air, gas heating - Double French doors open to a sunny NW-facing terrace - Private level garden with panoramic views over Mort Bay - 3 full bathrooms and a downstairs powder room/laundry - 150m to Nicholson St Public School, stroll to Darling St cafes
