Holborn House, Surry Hills IH

What We Love

Nestled on a quiet Surry Hills street, this newly renovated four-bedroom terrace represents the pinnacle of contemporary urban living. The home's striking staircase serves as a sculptural centrepiece, connecting light filled living spaces across two beautifully designed levels. With its seamless integration of indoor and outdoor areas, this residence provides an ideal base for families or groups seeking both style and substance in one of Sydney's most vibrant inner city neighbourhoods.

Step through the entrance and into the ground floor's generous open plan living space, where clean lines and thoughtful spatial planning invite natural light to flood across pale stone floors. The kitchen with its sleek minimalist cabinetry, concealing a butler's pantry that houses both laundry facilities and ample storage. The kitchen island becomes the home's social anchor, the kitchen is equipped with an induction hob, electric oven, and a premium Zip tap delivering instant boiling and sparkling water. A pod coffee machine and dishwasher complete the culinary suite, while underfloor heating extends beneath your feet, creating an atmosphere of quiet luxury. The space flows seamlessly toward the private courtyard garden, an intimate outdoor sanctuary perfect for sunset aperitifs or long weekend lunches beneath the sky. Two bedrooms occupy this level: one with a queen bed, the other featuring two king singles, both cooled by ceiling fans and bathed in natural light. The ground floor bathroom becomes a spa retreat with both bath tub and overhead shower, warmed by underfloor heating on crisp mornings. Ascend the striking staircase to discover the upper level's serene sleeping quarters, where ducted air conditioning maintains perfect comfort year-round. The principal bedroom showcases a king bed and private ensuite shower featuring marble tiles. A fourth bedroom with a king single bed sits alongside a dedicated office nook, ideal for those who blend work and leisure. Split system air conditioning in the main living area and the master bedroom ensures climate control throughout the seasons.

Surry Hills has long been celebrated for its effortless blend of historic architecture and contemporary creativity. Your doorstep opens onto streets lined with galleries, independent boutiques, and some of Sydney's most exciting dining venues. The CBD's gleaming towers rise just minutes beyond Crown Street, accessible via a pleasant walk or quick bus journey that makes city access effortless. Moore Park and Centennial Park provide vast green expanses for morning runs, cycling expeditions, or simply escaping the urban intensity without leaving the inner city. The eastern beaches beckon from less than thirty minutes away by bus or car, placing Bondi's famous sands and Coogee's relaxed shores within easy reach whenever surf and sunshine call.
