22 Caledonia Street, Paddington
CONTEMPORARY ARTISTRY IN HISTORIC SURROUNDINGS. A COOL CLASSIC WITH A DIFFERENCE
Far removed from the average terrace, this eye-catching slant on modern lifestyle defies convention with some intriguing new ideas to maximise space, light and practicality. Complete openness is the theme, with a sleek central timber/stainless steel kitchen separating the living and dining areas, and a subtle hint of the orient in the shoji doors and the private, north facing, cobbled courtyard. Upstairs, both bedrooms are big, bright and airy, one facing north, looking through full width sliding glass doors to the balcony and into the peaceful, sun dappled greenery and blue sky beyond. Lovely to look at, easy to live in, and so convenient to the exciting activity of Oxford St.

Paddington
Just 3km from the CBD, quaint and charming Paddington is one of Sydney's best-known suburbs. It's renowned primarily for Oxford Street, the vast boulevard which runs north to south through the entire suburb and is one of Sydney's premier shopping destinations.Lined with interesting boutiques, high-street shops and eclectic specialty stores, it's also the home of the Paddington Markets, held every Saturday in Paddington Primary School. Glenmore Road (The Intersection with Oxford Street), William Street and Five Ways have also emerged as world-class shopping strips, and it's here that you'll find some of the city's most fashionable boutiques.Paddington is famous for the ornate Victorian terraces which dominate almost every one of its meandering streets. Still quite working class up until the late '80s, Paddington's rapid gentrification saw these formerly rundown residences snapped up and renovated at a rate of knots, with the high demand sending prices skyrocketing into the million dollar stratosphere.
Paddington plays host to a vast array of revered galleries, including the famed Sherman Galleries, which congregate primarily around Glenmore Road and the prestigious tree-lined boulevard of Paddington Street.
It's well-known for its pub culture, with traditional hotels such as The Royal, Bellevue, The London and The Paddington Inn offering great pub food at reasonable prices. A firm favourite among trendy inner city types and executives, Paddington's increasingly high prices mean that the affluent have a firm foothold on the suburb.
