What We Love
Tucked along a quiet laneway in the heart of Surry Hills, this split-level brick cottage combines heritage character with thoughtfully updated interiors. Original brickwork, timber flooring and a practical two-level layout create a comfortable retreat within one of Sydney's most vibrant inner-city neighbourhoods.
The ground floor features a welcoming living area centred around the decorative original brick fireplace, alongside a well-equipped kitchen fitted with an induction cooktop, oven, Smeg toaster and Breville espresso machine. The bathroom is finished with blue mosaic tile flooring and includes a rain shower, with an internal washing machine that adds convenience for extended stays.
Upstairs, the bedroom is set beneath a pitched ceiling with exposed timber beams, a skylight and ceiling fan, creating a bright and airy space. A queen bed is complemented by built-in wardrobes and a full-height bookshelf.
Adjacent to the upper level, a private tiled courtyard offers a comfortable outdoor setting with bench seating and a Weber BBQ.
Located in the heart of Surry Hills, the home is within walking distance of Crown Street's acclaimed cafés, restaurants and boutique shopping, as well as Central Station, Prince Alfred Park and the Sydney CBD. Whether you're visiting for work or a city getaway, the location places Sydney's dining, culture and transport connections within easy reach.
