1860s oasis in inner-city Darlington, near Sydney Uni

Description

An airy, tastefully restored 1860s Victorian terrace home on a quiet street in Darlington, next to Sydney University and close to UTS, Notre Dame, the city and Redfern bars and restaurants. The house is ideal for a family or a couple. The accommodation includes: • Main bedroom with queen bed and west-facing balcony. • Large second and third bedrooms, each with queen beds. • A revamped bathroom with a bath/shower and toilet. • A fully equipped modern kitchen with dishwasher, gas cooktop, electric fan-forced oven and a sunny dining nook that opens onto a north-facing light-well. • A separate dining room (with gas heating) that comfortably seats 6-8 people. • A light-filled living room (with in-floor heating) that opens on to a secluded private courtyard. • An external laundry, with washer and dryer. • High-speed FTTP (fibre to the premises) wifi, TV and stereo, and a Sonos sound system with music streaming services. • Backyard oasis with mains-gas barbeque for summer entertaining. • Off-street parking in a secure car port that opens on to a laneway at the rear of the property. • There is also a smaller fourth bedroom / study with a single bed that we use for storage when we are away. Easy walking distance to the University of Sydney, UTS and Notre Dame, and a five-minute walk to Redfern Station (frequent trains to city and beyond, buses to the University of NSW), and 15-20 minute taxi ride to the airport. The cafe and bar precincts of Redfern, Chippendale, Newtown and Glebe are all within easy reach, as are major supermarkets, specialist grocers and bakeries. Victoria Park and Prince Alfred Park - both with excellent public swimming pools - are close by, and there are frequent public transport links to beaches and other attractions.
