Entrenched in the Glebe community and Sydney's arts scene, this Victorian terrace was the much-loved home of esteemed late actors and artists Robert Alexander and Barry Blight for half a century where they mentored creatives and hosted legendary parties and gatherings. Full of soul and substance, the three-storey terrace is perfect for entertaining with gracefully proportioned interiors leading out to a sunny north-east facing courtyard framed by leafy greenery. A versatile layout features three double bedrooms and a separate lounge or fourth bedroom with a blend of vintage charm and artistically curated interiors that allow the home's authentic charm to shine while creating a warm and welcoming feel. Featuring a wide frontage and potential for parking in line with neighbouring homes, the standout feature of this significant residence is the lofty top floor retreat with banks of windows bringing in the sunshine and framing wide views over the heritage rooftops to the city skyline that come alive at night. In the historic heart of Glebe, one street back from Glebe Point Road, this Victorian classic is a perfect place to inspire a new generation of creatives in a prime city fringe location.
