Feature staircase & attic create inner city delight

This 1920s cottage in Sydney’s Marrickville was purchased in a state of despair! But Bayside Built had the vision to design and construct an inner city delight.

The original pokey and dark layout had to make way for open spaces, sleek and uninterrupted lines and an abundance of natural light brought into all the right places.

The addition of a large attic accessed via custom-built concrete paddle stairs gives the feeling of generosity and grandeur.

It is home to a dreamy bedroom and lounge area, offering a clear view of the sky through the use of several roof windows.

“We love how this space is flooded with natural light and offers district views,” says the owner. “Our emphasis on design was to create a smart home that not only looks and feels beautiful but works!”

The renovated basement level now features a cellar and a large open plan living/kitchen area opening up to the rear yard.

Adding two off-street car spaces has ultimately transformed this house into a luxurious, modern home.
