Overview

An Architect-Reimagined Peninsula Gem

Infused with creative vision and deep respect for its heritage, this architect-led transformation of a grand 1888 Victorian terrace offers a luminous and highly considered family retreat on the peninsula. Once the childhood home of former NSW Premier Neville Wran, the residence has been reimagined from the ground up with an uncompromising attention to detail. A full-scale, down-to-the-studs renovation has brought new life to its historic bones, balancing elegant heritage features with refined modern finishes. At the heart of the home, expansive open-plan living flows to a sun-soaked, French-inspired courtyard-designed for effortless entertaining and everyday connection. A calm and tactile material palette of American Oak and Carrara marble sets a sophisticated tone, while double-hung sash windows, bespoke steel-framed doors, and a central internal courtyard allow natural light to cascade through the interiors. Considered touches like exposed brickwork and sculptural lighting thoughtfully bridge old and new, celebrating the home's storied past while delivering luxurious, practical spaces for contemporary living. • Exquisite architectural renovation completed in 2023 • Premium American Oak flooring, Skyrange steel doors • Four serene double bedrooms with bespoke built-ins • Sun-drenched master retreat with opulent ensuite • Second bedroom opens to a lacework-framed balcony • Versatile home office or second lounge with fireplace • Chef's Carrara marble kitchen with breakfast bar • Delft Blue Lacanche induction cooker, a true statement • Qasair rangehood, Zip HydroTap, Liebherr fridge/freezer • Grand dining, cosy living with Jetmaster fireplace • Soaring 3.4m ceilings, sculptural lighting, brass details • Chic French courtyard with built-in BeefEater BBQ • Rear lane access, just 550m to vibrant Balmain village • Opposite Ewenton Park, 600m stroll to Balmain East Wharf
