Sydney Darlinghurst Apartment Fetches $2.01M
A one-bedroom apartment in Sydney's Darlinghurst has fetched a hefty $2.01 million. The buyer was drawn to the unique blend of industrial heritage and modern comfort in the Printers Lane property.
The apartment, part of the historic Shepherd & Newman printery conversion, offers a rare combination of old and new. It boasts open-plan living spaces with solid timber floors, a sleek stainless steel kitchen equipped with Smeg appliances, and a stylish mosaic-tiled bathroom encased in glass. Lofty ceilings, exposed brick, heavy timber beams, and double-height steel-framed windows add to its charm.
Tucked away in a quiet laneway, the apartment is a short stroll from Hyde Park and the CBD. The neighbourhood, known for its creativity and contrast, offers a mix of small galleries, laneway cafes, independent grocers, and boutique gyms. The previous owner, who held the property as an investment, has decided to sell.
The apartment, with its communal rooftop terrace offering skyline views across the CBD, is well-suited for both daily living and entertaining. The buyer appreciated the rare combination of industrial heritage and contemporary comfort, making this a significant sale in the Sydney real estate market.
