212 Alt St, Haberfield NSW 2045, Australia

The innovative recreation of one of Haberfield’s signature 1920s Californian bungalows by Bennett and Trimble Architects links the old with the new via a striking contemporary pavilion extension saturated in light and air. Set on a private 562sqm approx with a huge north-facing garden, the four-bedroom home’s creative interplay of light and space brings a new dimension to a timeless classic. The single-level layout unfolds with a fluid connection between indoors and out, designed for modern family living while honouring the home’s timeless origins. Sustainability sits at the heart of the design, with passive solar principles and a 9.5kW solar power system ensuring the home treads lightly on the environment without compromising on comfort or style. Around the corner from Algie Park and moments to the Bay Run and Haberfield village, this is a perfect address for the active family with easy access to the CBD via the City West Link completing the picture of effortless Inner West living.
