Northcote Street, Mortlake, NSW
Wayne Zahra secured this apartment in Mortlake off-market, before it ever reached a public campaign.
It’s a north-facing home, so light runs through it for most of the day, and recent work has lifted it well beyond the standard for the block.
New engineered flooring sets the tone, while a custom mudroom, extra built-in storage and an extended dining benchtop make the layout work harder than its footprint suggests.
The result is a space that feels considered rather than renovated for show, and easy to live in day to day.
Buying it off-market meant the purchaser stepped in ahead of open inspections and competing interest, securing a well-presented apartment on a quiet, direct deal rather than through a contested sale.
