A unique opportunity to own a serene and elegant sanctuary in one of Sydney's most vibrant neighbourhoods. This beautiful 2-bedroom Art Deco apartment occupies the western top floor of an immaculate c1912 building, tucked into a quiet one-way street and opposite a small leafy park. One of only nine residences in the building, these apartments are rarely sold - only two have been offered in the past 20 years - and this home beautifully reflects why they are so tightly-held.
With the entire building recently restored, the apartment showcases a flexible layout with beautifully proportioned rooms featuring 3m-high ceilings, period cornices, and large windows, all filled with year-round natural light. Boasting 1920s Australian tallowwood floorboards that bring an authentic old-world charm to all living areas, this is a simply gorgeous home, with Oriental rush sisal providing a soft surface underfoot in both bedrooms and original Deco tiles in an enclosed balcony, perfect for use as a dining/sunroom, or office.
The generous bedrooms feature recessed lighting and large windows, with the master boasting floor-to-ceiling ladder bookshelves and French doors opening onto a lovely park-view balcony, and the second offering full built-ins, including Shaker drawers and a window seat. The classical, French-inspired kitchen is magazine-worthy, having featured in David Jones catalogues and Good Weekend photo shoots. Fantastic storage, a pull-out pantry, and a 30mm Carrara marble benchtop make cooking a pleasure, with the sumptuous living room adjacent providing a lovely zone for relaxed living. Featuring the rare luxury of north, south, and west-facing windows, the apartment enjoys excellent cross ventilation.
The enclosed balcony off the kitchen offers a flexible space flooded with light, ideal for use as a dining area, office, or sunroom. The magnificent bathroom evokes Deco glamour with antique pedestal basin, hand-laid mosaic tiles, and gleaming chrome fittings, plus laundry facilities. In a pet-friendly building with potential for AC installation plus secure bin storage, dedicated bike racks, and immaculate common areas, this is a very special residence. Perfectly located in the heart of a vibrant locale, moments from Potts Point, a short stroll to the city, Oxford Street, and the harbour foreshore at Rushcutters Bay, it is a must-see for those seeking something special in this coveted area.
