Cute cottage, stylish semi or heritage rebuild: Three picture-perfect Sydney homes

There’s something very satisfying about a home that’s easy on the eyes. 

While these three Sydney properties are unique in their architectural sensibilities, they share the same unmistakeable, photogenic charm.

North Sydney

$2.6 million

Originally constructed in the 1870s and later rebuilt, 29 Doris Street is barely showing its age.

There are subtle heritage reminders inside, including sandstone walls and original fireplaces, but with a gleaming kitchen and bathrooms featuring Carrara marble, the overall feel is contemporary.

A short walk south takes you to Mosmans Bay, with shops and Warringa Park to the north.

The home will go to auction on April 14 through Elliot Stansfield of The Agency North.

Neutral Bay

$1.9 million

Semis like this light-filled offering in Neutral Bay present the perfect opportunity to upsize from an apartment without the added upkeep and expense of buying a house.

Indoor and outdoor spaces are wonderfully connected at 69 Undercliff Street, which makes playing host a breeze – guests can flow from the living area out to the courtyard or up to the top-floor balcony.

Stanmore

$1.9 million 

From the friendly village atmosphere to the charming rows of Victorian and Federation-era houses, there’s a lot to love about Stanmore.

This freestanding house at 4 Westbourne Street fits right in to this picturesque neighbourhood, with manicured hedges, arched windows and a moscaic-tiled pathway that beckons you inside.

A courtyard wraps around the property and leads you to a level backyard. 

Cobden & Hayson Annandale agent Jonathan Hammond will take the residence to auction on April 14.
