Overview

A design icon in one of Newtown's best spots

On one of Newtown's prettiest streets, the highly acclaimed renovation of this classic c1890 Victorian worker's cottage by Josephine Hurley Architecture has created a soul-soothing sanctuary that's grounded in nature yet just footsteps to the pulse and energy of King Street. Blending heritage character with a creative contemporary aesthetic, the design introduces inventive solutions to light, volume and flow, with carefully framed sightlines enhancing the sense of space throughout. Curves and angles form the architectural language of the home, softened by a rich interplay of colour, texture and natural materials. Inspired by the gentle curves of the original heritage facade, a series of arched forms delineate internal zones and create a sense of movement and rhythm. From the surprise reveal of the lower-level living domain to the light-filled main bedroom, the home is rich in small delights, clever storage solutions and sustainable design principles, fostering an effortless connection between indoors and out. Enveloped by greenery yet just moments to the action, this exceptional home has featured extensively in design journals serving as testament to its exceptional design and connection to place. - Sustainable luxury, creative design, fine craftsmanship - Recycled Blackbutt chevron parquet floors, 3.3m ceilings - Curved lines and an artful blend of colour and texture - 3 tranquil bedrooms, all with built-ins, Velux skylights - King-sized main bed with a garden outlook, linen curtains - Dream custom kitchen in Verde Guatemala honed marble - Butler's pantry and a breakfast bar with a waterfall edge - Miele appliances, induction cooktop, beautiful joinery - Inax Yohen Border Japanese finger tiles by Artedomus - Free-flowing living and dining spaces, sleek gas fireplace - Tranquil courtyard garden, rear lane access to parking - 2 luxurious bathroom, Kaldewei bath and double shower - Large laundry/utilities room with masses of storage - Showcased in Habitus Living issue64 and The Design Files - Rates: Water $228pq, Council $560pq (All approx.)
