SOLD $2,125,000
Residing on the second floor of the heritage-listed John's Silk Store building (circa 1890), this unique Silk House apartment brings together old-world charm and modern design across two spacious levels. Northerly light pours into the bright, open-plan living area and island kitchen, while winter sun filters through stacker doors that open to a generous balcony with views across the harbour to Stockton Breakwall.
Downstairs, three oversized bedrooms offer a quiet retreat from the social buzz above. Each one opens onto the building's huge lacework verandah, a feature that not only adds grandeur but also brings a touch of romance to the streetscape of Hunter Street Mall. Two full bathrooms plus a guest powder room mean there's no waiting in line, and the secure car space seals the deal.
Step outside and you're instantly plugged into the East End village lifestyle. Grab a coffee from Mister Sister, do a Woolies Metro run, or settle in for dinner or drinks at Oh My Papa, Betty's Burgers, or QT's rooftop bar. Stroll the harbour foreshore, walk to Honeysuckle or Nobbys Beach, or hop over to Darby Street or Queen's Wharf. Whether you're after convenience, character, or after a stunning view, this apartment's got all three.
