164 Jersey Road, Paddington
FULLY RESTORED AUTHENTIC VICTORIAN TERRACE CA 1885 REAR LANE TO SECURE PARKING
In this hi tech age of minimalism it's rewarding to see a traditional Victorian terrace sympathetically restored to its original grace, maintaining all the essence of its vibrant heritage from the rich colours and flowing drapery to the cedar doors and stairwells, the flagstone courtyard with its twin fountains and wooden gates, right down to the original doorbell! Modern amenities settle perfectly into the picture, providing the high level of comfort and practicality required for today's busy family, all discreetly included without compromise to the historic character. Upstairs, 3 large bedrooms each have a private balcony, and are complemented by a classically inspired marble bathroom.

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.
