Butter Shack, A Newly Revived Oasis in the Heart of Paddington

The mindful renovation of one of Paddington's few remaining weatherboard cottages has created a sun-filled sanctuary without sacrificing its authentic period charm. The freestanding home takes full advantage of its northerly aspect with a Mediterranean-inspired internal deck and rooftop terrace for relaxing in the sunshine or dining under the stars. Built in the early 1900s, the focus of the redesign highlights functionality, light and an honest expression of materials with feel-good interiors complemented by finishes in Carrara marble, aged brass and timber. A perfect escape from the fast pace of city living let reassuringly close to both Paddington and Woollahra villages, the two-storey home is surrounded by cafes and galleries on a sunny corner block just 500m across the park to Edgecliff station and 700m to Five Ways' neighbourhood hub.
