Three outstanding Sydney homes to inspire you on your property search

If you’re trawling through listings waiting for something to inspire you, Domain can lend a helping hand. 

These three properties are all open for inspection this weekend and are well worth a look. 

Balmain East  

$3.3 million

Even born and raised Sydneysiders will admit that views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and its iconic surroundings never really get old.

You’ll be able to take in this vista every day from the entrance to 8 Brett Avenue, which also enjoys a sunny northern aspect and premium finishes throughout.

Village cafes are a short walk away.

McGrath Balmain agent Kate Lorden is handling the sale.

Walking upstairs to the master bedroom at 15 Cromwell Street would be like stepping into your own New York loft.

Characterised by exposed brick and an open-plan layout, there’s an ensuite, walk-in-wardrobe and a space for entertaining guests.

Downstairs, there’s an enclosed courtyard that’s accessible from the second bedroom, living room and the dining area.

Pilcher Residential’s Simon Pilcher will take the property to auction on March 10.

Complete with a white-picket fence, the Federation-era cottage at 37 Sloane Street is cute as a button from the outside, with enough upgrades inside to make life easy for contemporary families.

The bathroom and kitchen have been tastefully renovated, with a dark colour scheme and handsome cabinetry.

Skylights throughout the living areas keep the house bright and cheerful.

The auction will be held on March 10, through Belle Property Annandale agent Michael Hallit.

Skylights and bifold doors at the rear fill the home with sunlight.
