Overview

An elevated Victorian with cinematic harbour views

Perched high above the harbour in a tightly held peninsula pocket of Balmain East, this tri-level Victorian terrace commands cinematic views across the water to Goat Island, centred on the iconic silhouette of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Elevated for privacy and bathed in northerly light, the three-bedroom home is freestanding to one side and enjoys a rare sense of outlook and calm, enhanced by invaluable double garaging. Beautifully proportioned interiors unfold over three levels, offering a flexible and highly liveable layout, with a top-floor master retreat crowned by dual dormer windows capturing the harbour panorama. Updated for comfort yet rich with potential, the home presents an exceptional opportunity to further enhance and create a luxurious harbourside residence in one of Sydney's most tightly held enclaves. With views that will never be built out and no through-traffic, this tranquil harbourside setting is just 350m to Balmain East Wharf for an easy city commute, with scenic harbour parkland at the doorstep. - A compelling blend of heritage, views and potential - Panoramic views over the Harbour Bridge from 3 levels - 3 large bedrooms, 2 with built-ins and the main ensuite - 30sqm approx top floor retreat, dual dormer windows - Bay fronted living and dining with a sunny NE aspect - High ceilings, cedar-framed windows, powder room - Dine-in granite gas kitchen with polished parquet floors - French doors to a rear patio and wraparound courtyard - 2 bathrooms plus an internal laundry, understair storage - 30sqm approx double garage, 13sqm approx attic storage - Nicholson St Public School catchment, 350m to the ferry - 400m to East Village Hotel and picturesque Illoura Reserve
