Overview

Architectural innovation meets historic charm in Birchgrove

Architecturally designed to take full advantage of dazzling city views, the inspired reinvention of this freestanding worker's cottage strikes a perfect chord between heritage charm and high-end design. Rebuilt from the ground up retaining a sense of history while creating new, multifunctional spaces for contemporary living, the design honours the past by incorporating salvaged materials including repurposed sandstone and reclaimed bricks from the historic Bald Rock Hotel. These storied materials are juxtaposed with sleek contemporary finishes including burnished concrete floors and that sit alongside carefully selected fixtures and finishes sourced from around the globe. A family focused layout features four bedrooms including a luxurious master suite while the lower level is dedicated to living and entertaining with exposed beams and keystone laser-cut acoustic ceiling panels lending an industrial feel to the space. Opening to a landscaped garden, 'Magnolia cottage' is positioned in a village hotspot with Darling Street's cafe scene at one end of the street and Mort Bay Park and the ferry wharf at the other. - White American Oak floors by Havwoods, Daikin zoned air - 4 bedrooms on one level, 3 with built-ins, custom Oak doors - Main with an ensuite with a freestanding bath and shower - Versatile 4th bed or multi-function room with Murphy bed - Caesarstone island kitchen in Raw Concrete, Asko gas cooktop - Miele pyrolytic oven, Sirius rangehood, Hafele pull-out pantry - Open plan living and dining with burnished concrete floors - Jetmaster gas fireplace, Tri Pendant Light by Resident NZ - Full height stackable doors to a private landscaped garden - Tallowwood deck, built-in gas bbq, established magnolia trees - Repurposed 200-year-old sandstone, copper outdoor lighting - Family bathroom, powder room, full-sized internal laundry - 3.2kW Enphase solar power, Haiku ceiling fans, double glazing - Fully network cabled, automated blinds, Buster & Punch lighting - 750m to the ferry, 300m to the Royal Oak, stroll to village life
