The redesign of this classic Victorian terrace by Steele Olney of Studio Dot treats the home's original fabric as a framework threading crisp contemporary forms throughout to create something both grounded and quietly bold.
From the street, the heritage façade holds its line. Step inside and the plan begins to loosen, unfolding gradually toward a deeply private, north-facing courtyard. Spaces widen, light strengthens, and the home opens up, culminating in an outdoor zone that feels more like a hidden urban room than a yard. Everyday living, dining and kitchen, third bedroom and a second bathroom sit on the ground level, while upstairs the original two bedrooms and main bathroom retain a more traditional rhythm. White walls and marble surfaces create clarity, offset by warm timber floors, a restored staircase, bespoke joinery and sculptural Marc Newson tapware. Low-energy lighting, underfloor heating and timber ceiling fans all work quietly in the background, supporting comfort and efficiency. The result is a terrace that feels composed, calm and distinctly inner-city: heritage at its core, contemporary in its execution, and designed to live beautifully every day.
Stroll just a few steps to Welsh Blacks or Corner House for your morning coffee, enjoy a bistro meal at the Commy or Oriental, or buy some Scandi homewares at the delightful Pappa Sven store. Stroll to National Park and Marketown and a four minute drive to Bar Beach.
