13 Calder Road Darlington, NSW 2008

From its iron lace balconies to a private rooftop retreat, this contemporary Darlington home gives the classic Sydney terrace a fresh point of view. Holding the prized corner of a strata-titled collection, the three-storey home takes its cues from the neighbourhood's historic streetscape. Dappled sunlight plays across the filigree facade, while French doors open to north-facing balconies set against a leafy canopy. Parquetry floors and crisp white shutters carry the classic detailing indoors. Three double bedrooms give everyone a place to retreat, while the terracotta-tiled rooftop terrace is made for long lunches and quiet afternoons in the sun. Internal access to an oversized lock-up garage of brings everyday ease to a quiet yet connected inner-city address. Tucked away on a tightly held street between Darlington's cafe hub and the University of Sydney precinct, it's just 550m from Redfern station and just as close to Victoria Park, where open lawns and an open-air pool offer a leafy escape on the city fringe.
