26 Reiby Street Newtown, NSW 2042

A distinctive slice of Newtown history, this 1880s worker's cottage pairs period character with an unbeatable setting just off Enmore Road's cultural and social hub. Part of the historic Dora Terrace development, built on the former estate of pioneering colonial businesswoman Mary Reibey, the terrace stands apart with its striking witch's hat facade and sunny corner position. Only one common wall and windows along the northern side bring natural light into the lofty interiors, while dual access via front and rear entrances adds to its versatility. Comfortable as is, the home is ready for renovation, offering the chance to live in or lease out while exploring the possibilities and creating something truly special with a leafy courtyard as a private outdoor escape in the heart of the action. Immerse yourself in Newtown's eclectic energy with the Enmore Theatre and Young Henrys brewery just 250m away, and 550m to Newtown station and the buzz of King Street.
