Picture-perfect on the outside and pure architectural theatre within, this freestanding Federation cottage has been reimagined by Raymond Panetta of Studio Panetta as a family home of exceptional style and substance. A wide gabled facade gives way to an innovative two-storey layout where heritage elegance and high-end contemporary design exist in perfect balance. European Oak, Tundra and Calacatta marble, brushed brass and extensive custom joinery create a rich yet restrained material palette, complemented by seamless integrated technology. Four generous bedrooms include a private master retreat overlooking the garden, while two living zones and a versatile loft offer space for families to connect or retreat. At the heart of the home, a sunlit social zone is anchored by a dream island kitchen and flows to a natural stone terrace, landscaped garden and pool designed as the centrepiece of family life. Sitting pretty on a level 310sqm dual-access block with rear lane access to parking, this is a perfect spot to enjoy a quintessential Balmain lifestyle, 200m to Darling Street village and 500m to Elkington Park and Dawn Fraser Baths.
