Secluded behind a romantic walled garden at the top of the street, this wide-fronted terrace blends traditional grandeur with contemporary flair over two substantial levels. Built c1895 and freestanding to one side, the three-bedroom home remains true to its Victorian roots with ornate pressed metal ceilings, three fireplaces and Kauri floorboards as a nod to the past with splashes of colours bringing an upbeat vibe. The lower level is devoted to living and entertaining with a choice of alfresco spaces and a chef's kitchen while the upper level features three large bedrooms, the king-sized main opening via French doors to a gorgeous balcony. With Collyer Playground at the end of the street and in the catchment for Newtown High School of Performing Arts, this hidden gem is set on an unusually large 164sqm away from the hustle and bustle but close to the action. Enjoy a sense of peace and privacy just 350m to the buzz of South King Street and 650m down to Enmore Park and the Annette Kellerman Aquatic Centre.
