Perfectly positioned in the heart of Paddington, 90 Beck Street offers an enviable lifestyle with cafés, boutique shopping, parks, and dining all just moments from your door, while still enjoying the peace and privacy of a tightly held residential street.
This charming circa 1910 worker's cottage presents a rare opportunity to retain its timeless character while unlocking significant future potential. With its classic façade, original ornate features, and generous proportions, the home provides an outstanding foundation for renovation, extension, or reconfiguration to suit a wide range of lifestyles (STCA).
Currently offering three well-proportioned bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, a character-filled main bathroom with clawfoot bath and travertine tiles, and a near-new ensuite, the existing layout allows for immediate comfort while also inviting creative enhancement. The open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area is bathed in natural light and offers flexibility to further modernise or expand.
The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, 40mm stone benchtops, and gas cooking, opening via bifold doors to a covered entertaining deck. This seamless indoor-outdoor connection highlights the home's strong bones and presents an ideal platform for future upgrades or architectural extension.
Set on a 405sqm north-facing (front) allotment, the spacious backyard provides exceptional scope to extend the residence, add a pool, or create a bespoke outdoor entertaining environment, all while maintaining privacy and excellent natural light. A full-length loft accessed via spiral staircase adds further versatility, ideal as a home office, retreat, or future reimagined space.
Nestled in one of Paddington's most sought-after pockets, the property enjoys strong street presence and convenient access to vibrant cafés, schools, and transport, making it an appealing proposition for owner-occupiers, renovators, or those seeking to add long-term value.
A compelling opportunity to secure a character home with genuine scope to renovate, extend, and create something truly special in a blue-chip Paddington location.
