Balmain, corner shop

This former corner shop and residence is located on the cormer of Beattie Street and Harris Street, in the inner city suburb of Balmain.

  1. I love the idea of living in a large home above the shop. Just close up the shop at a decent hour each weekday, have coffee in the back yard, then stroll upstairs to sort the children and dinner. No commuting, no parking problems, spouse on hand when needed.

  2. It's that second floor balcony that particularly catches my eye.

    1. Not sure of the era, Amy, because it's not heritage listed but I think it's likely to be from the Victorian era.
