Contemporary cool
A circa-1875 terrace has had a head-to-toe reboot at this Erskineville five-bedder.
The kitchen is a focal point, with statement lights imported from Italy that hang over a marble benchtop and large, steel-framed doors leading out to the courtyard.
Renovations have also restored the original Kauri floors and fireplaces to their former glory.
Sammuel Schumann, who will sell the property with Jane Schumann on behalf of Di Jones Real Estate, says the price guide is $2.8 million.
Head along to a viewing of the home this weekend before it goes to auction on August 23.
