Feature staircase & attic create inner city delight

April 23, 2020 Leave a Comment

Facebook0Pin00Email0Tweet0

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.

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

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.

Bayside Built is a Sydney based construction and development company that specialises in high-end residential construction aimed at achieving a unique and contemporary product. Doug Carey, director and owner, combines the love of architecture, art, and Sydneyโ€˜s vibrant lifestyle when designing and building one of a kind homes.
