40 Liverpool Street, Paddington, NSW, 2021

Classical architecture meets exacting contemporary design in this newly rebuilt c1890 terrace in one of Paddington's prettiest village pockets. Behind a restored filigree facade, the down-to-the-studs renovation presents a sophisticated contemporary interpretation of a Victorian classic, perfectly attuned to the Australian way of life. Oak, stone and bronze brings warmth and refinement, while extensive custom joinery, zoned air and meticulous detailing underscore the calibre of the rebuild. Designed as an expansive entertaining domain, the entire ground floor unfolds beneath soaring ceilings, with restored fireplaces defining the living and dining spaces and a high-spec kitchen opening to a landscaped courtyard with a built-in bbq and wet bar. High ceilings elevate the interiors while George Nelson pendants and cascading stair lighting create a sculptural ambience by night. At the top end of the street, with rear lane access, this is turnkey luxury in a leafy neighbourhood around the corner from RHW Park, 500m to Five Ways. - Restored original flagstone and tile entry - Rebuilt/reimagined from the ground up - High-end finishes, custom joinery - 3 upstairs bedrooms with built-in robes - Large main with an iron lace balcony - Living and dining with twin fireplaces - RealFlame gas fire, Carrara marble mantle - Engineered Oak floors, ambient lighting - Entertainer's kitchen, F&P appliances - Induction cooktop, Shaker joinery - Mineral stone benchtops, deep pantry - Ekodeck with banquette seating/storage - Wet bar with built-in bbq, drinks fridge - Zoned air, Bosch alarm, ambient lighting - Glenmore Rd Public School catchment - Walk up to Oxford St's cafes and social scene
