This ornate updated 1886 Victorian terrace presents a timeless family residence that balances its grandeur with breezy comfort, in a peaceful Redfern location. 

The tri-level home was completely rebuilt in 2014 by architect, Archer Design and JMC Builders Managing Director Jeremy Marple and his wife, with a no-expense-spared fit out and living spaces that open to a central courtyard.

Speaking to LUXURY LIST WEEKEND, Richard Archer of Archer Design said the property was Winner of the 2016 Trends International Design Award for Best Residential Renovation.

"Archer Design’s extensive renovation of this substantial Redfern terrace brings sunlight and fresh air into the heart of the home. All the Living and Bedroom and bathroom spaces were entirely remodelled, storage maximised, and all fixtures and fittings upgraded throughout its generous three-level floor plan."

"A blend of panelled walls and contemporary fixtures combine to create a stylish home that has been completely remodelled with an open-plan layout to complement a relaxed, yet quintessentially ‘Sydney’ lifestyle," Richard explained.

“I love the high ceilings throughout and the volume of internal space,” Nic Krasnostein told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND. 

“The large open plan lower level offers a variety of living options, with formal and informal options.”

“I also really enjoy the convenience of this ultra quiet, cul de sac street close to all of Redfern and Surry Hills’ great entertainment options.”

The home’s entry level features grand formal living and dining with fireplace. Steps away, the high-spec Miele kitchen enjoys a marble island, while the casual living area boasts atrium ceiling and media wall.

Four bedrooms span the upper two levels of the home, including two with ensuite bathrooms, and an oversized master which enjoys walk-in robe and balcony.

Owner Alicia Wright styled the home herself, telling LUXURY LIST WEEKEND, "My partner and I have so enjoyed living in Great Buckingham St for the past eight years - the area really is so vibrant with a burgeoning restaurant scene that we take advantage of whenever possible." 

"The generous dimensions of number 98 have allowed me to accommodate much of the furniture that I accumulated whilst residing in Asia for many years. I’ve managed to layer the space without ever feeling that it was crowded in any way. Kudos to the developer for creating such a wonderfully liveable home."

Metres from the area's best green expanse, the property is close to Inner Sydney High School and the premier restaurant strip.
