Description: Set high on Catherine Street with sweeping city skyline views, this elegant shopfront terrace offers a rare combination of immediate liveability and future design certainty in one of the Inner West's most tightly held pockets. Behind its beautifully preserved heritage façade lies a surprisingly generous multi level home filled with light and original character. High ceilings, exposed brickwork give the interiors a warmth that is increasingly hard to find, while the flexible layout allows the home to function effortlessly as a family residence, creative studio or home based business. Upstairs, three generous bedrooms open to a traditional front balcony that captures the elevated position and district views. Downstairs, the living spaces flow through to a sunny and private rear garden with secure parking via Thorby Avenue, a prized asset in this part of Leichhardt. What truly sets 139 Catherine Street apart is its fully approved, heritage resolved DA by award winning Sydney practice Tribe Studio. The design respectfully builds on the original terrace while introducing a refined contemporary rear addition that dramatically enhances light, space and indoor outdoor living. For owner occupiers, it provides a clear and confident pathway to create a beautifully crafted long term home without the delays and uncertainty of council approvals. For boutique developers, it offers a premium, design led project in a location where quality architecture is strongly rewarded. Enjoy the home as it is, or realise the Tribe Studio vision and take it to its next chapter. Either way, this is a property that combines emotional warmth with genuine strategic upside. - Elevated position with uninterrupted city skyline views - Three generous bedrooms with a traditional front balcony - Multiple living zones including lounge, dining and family areas - Original fireplace, high ceilings and exposed brick detailing - Street facing shopfront style space ideal for a studio or home office - Private sun filled rear garden with secure parking from Thorby Avenue - Under house storage and workshop with internal access - DA approved Tribe Studio architectural transformation - Heritage resolved planning certainty with strong future upside - Walk to Norton Street, cafés, restaurants and transport
