23 Ormond Street, Paddington NSW 2021

Standing tall at the top end of a one-way street, this grand Victorian Italianate terrace captures the essence of Paddington living on a deep, sun-soaked block with rear lane pedestrian access. Perfectly positioned between Oxford Street's vibrant dining and social scene and the village charms of Five Ways, the setting is as connected as it is desirable. Elegant formal rooms with soaring pressed metal ceilings set a refined tone and flow through to a sunlit dine-in kitchen and a private courtyard bathed in northerly sunshine with wide open views. Classic proportions and fine period craftsmanship are tastefully updated for modern living, with newly refreshed interiors offering immediate comfort and scope to add your stamp of style. Upstairs, three generous bedrooms include a main with double French doors to a wide iron lace balcony, while a versatile lower level fourth bedroom with ensuite is ideal as a home office, studio or media retreat. Just 100m to Paddington Town Hall and 250m to RHW Park, this is village living at its finest.
