Simple stalking


Simplicity is calling me. A life stripped of frou frou and excessive trinkets. A neutral colour palette with texture for interest. Clean lines and .... a kick ass harbour view. Built in 1888 the Station Master's House is a Sydney icon. Recently sold at auction it confirms for me that life should be simple but fabulous. I love that these owners did not compete with what has to be one of the most amazing views of the harbour I have seen. I shudder to think what the price was. Link here while it lasts.

Imagine having a view like that, wow! You'd never want to leave the house. I love the exterior as well, it's understated but still gives a kind of grand impression.

That's fantastic! I've always wondered what that house looked like inside

Probably one of the nicest spots in McMahons point...

wow! I am amazed with this house and its interiors! I love the bathroom and how they have managed to use all the space and make it look spacious!

If the Hirst painting above the mantel is included, I'll take it!

I completely agree – simplicity is a good way to go. I love those huge pillows on the couch!

I too am obsessed with the bathroom. I seem to have a thing for open showers for some reason.

The ceiling on that bathroom is amazing.

You gotta love that view. So Sydney. Fantastic that a place like that still exists among all the new sparkly spaces.
