Polished and elegant, contemporary and classic, this charismatic Victorian terrace is perfectly positioned in the heart of one of Sydney’s most popular and best-known suburbs. Originally built in 1872 and architecturally re-designed a couple of years ago, Collins Terrace is a sanctuary of calm, showcasing two levels of meticulously crafted interiors, plus a studio and sunny courtyard. It is nestled amidst the hustle and bustle of this fashionable urban village, offering immediate access to a mix of intriguing galleries, outstanding vintage shopping, old-school music venues and modern fine-dining establishments.

Collins Terrace reflects the artistic and eclectic surroundings it sits in. Filled with an exquisite collection of artwork and sophisticated furnishings, it invites guests to relax into the space and be inspired.

Wide-plank floors and a soft-neutral palette create contemporary clean-line appeal, open-fireplaces and high ceilings provide old-world charm, while big steel bi-folds to the courtyard add an industrial, New York-style element. The stunning honed-marble kitchen with La Canche cooking is a delight to create and entertain in, while under-floor heating will have your feet warm, no matter the season.

Collins Terrace has four bedrooms, which are split between the main house and the studio, which is tucked away at the bottom of the courtyard and has its own ensuite. All deliver comfort, with sink-into bed and luxury linens to relax into at the end of the day. The master bedroom flows out to an iron lacework balcony so you can let the breeze float through the room at night.

Come evening time, head out to the courtyard with a built-in BBQ area will have you serving up authentic home-cooked fare under the stars. After dinner, dig into the fabulous collection of books held in the private study. Or, do as the locals do, and plant yourself on the front verandah with a glass of wine, and watch as the world goes by…

The Neighbourhood

Surry Hills continues to evolve as one of the most desirable inner city suburbs in Sydney, and certainly one of the best dressed in terms of innovative eating establishments. Indeed, some of Sydney’s best-known institutions are moments from the front door, including The Clock and The Dolphin Hotel. Or if you’re in the mood for something sweet, Gelato Messina will never disappoint. So much of the city is within walking distance from this central hub, including the edgy glamour of Darlinghurst, the lush parklands of Moore and Centennial Park, and the buzz and excitement of Circular Quay.
