Anchored on the eastern shores of the Balmain peninsula, this mid-century marvel commands uninterrupted 180-degree views across Mort Bay from three sunlit levels. Perched above the iconic Waterview Wharf Workshops, whose colourful heritage facades form part of the celebrated waterfront scene, the north-west facing home enjoys an immersive connection to the harbour, with the sparkling water animating the indoor and outdoor living spaces and serving as an ever-changing backdrop. Offered for the first time since its completion in 1978, the 8m-wide residence has been sympathetically updated retaining its authentic modernist design principles. Airy interiors celebrate space, light and simplicity with lofty raked ceilings, whitewashed brickwork and extensive glazing drawing the views deep into the home. Designed to engage with the vista, whole-floor living space opens to a sunny level garden where the harbour forms a virtual extension of the lush lawn. A flexible five-bedroom layout features a top floor devoted to a parents' retreat with a view-swept ensuite and rooftop terrace, while a generous double garage is a rare asset on the peninsula. In one of Balmain East's most tightly held waterfront pockets, it's just 550m to the ferry for a relaxed 15-minute trip into the city.
