Designed by award-winning architects fjmt, these four distinctive stories read as

a seamless collection of moments, housed within an iconic address at The Rocks.

Drawing cues from the dramatic texture and beauty of this heritage locale, each home

has its own style and aspect, reflecting the intricate craftsmanship of the area,

as well as your own individual tastes.

Steeped in history, The Rocks possesses a rare inner-city village charm. This is modern

living of a completely timeless nature. Nowhere else will you find markets, art

galleries, cafés and restaurants framed by terracotta rooftops, sandstone walls and

unmissable views of the Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge.

“ THE DUAL ICONS OF THE OPERA HOUSE AND THE HARBOUR

BRIDGE PROVIDE THE PERFECT FRAME TO THE EVER-CHANGING VIEWS.”

Welcome to The Harrington. With prime frontage onto both Harrington

and Gloucester Streets, it comprises 40 grand residences including rooftop

penthouses and sub-penthouses, with each individual space designed to bring

a sense of unique Rocks historic setting into your home.

The upper penthouse levels float effortlessly above the terracotta rooftops,

offering sweeping views of the harbour and Opera House through dramatic

floor-to-ceiling windows. The Harrington residences below afford intimate

aspects of tree-lined streets, village charm and Sydney’s skyline beyond.

The distinctive façade of The Harrington presents a unique design language

of ‘frames’ drawn on the deep splayed reveals and sills of The Rocks’ heritage

buildings. These frames are enhanced by a series of articulated bronze

and terracotta batten details.

From bespoke detailing through to the grandest of bay windows, each residence

pays homage to The Rocks before subtly and seamlessly converging with the

harbour, bringing two iconic palettes into one succinct story.

T H E ‘R O C K S’ PA L E T T E

Inspired by the warm tones of local stone, this palette features light timber

joinery and flooring. A natural white materiality with golden tones is used in the

kitchens and bathrooms to add warmth and subtle luxury. Within bathrooms,

a second stone application of pale grey is introduced as the backdrop to the

beautiful pale masonry frames of the vanity and storage.

T H E ‘H A R B O U R’ PA L E T T E

Inspired by Sydney’s coastal setting, this palette features a serene, cool tone for

the timber joinery. Light coloured timber detailing is crisp with a sophisticated

white and silver grey masonry reminiscent of water in motion.

Both palettes are elevated with the introduction of sleek metallic finishes

to robes, kitchen handles and the luxurious fixtures throughout.

“With a generous communal rooftop terrace available to residents,

spectacular views of Sydney’s most iconic landmarks are a daily occurrence.

This space has been carefully designed to maximise vistas, flowing

seamlessly onto adjoining lounge, dining and kitchen areas.”

“Inspired by our nostalgic setting - we have created interiors that

encompass a series of bespoke moments through thoughtful design,

careful detailing and deliberately framed view lines.”

Welcome to The Cambridge. Nestled between the historic Cumberland

Steps and Harrington’s Cambridge Lane, this exclusive address comprises just

nine superbly crafted residences, each with at least two frontages.

With a selection of either one, two or three bedroom configurations,

The Cambridge, at the northern end of the collection, shares a similar design

language to The Harrington. The level six penthouse with its bronze batten

façade presents magnificent Harbour and Opera House views.

“Reflecting The Rocks’ famous sandstone character,

terracotta-clad street walls are framed with sandstone-

“The interiors of The Cambridge blur the line between the

timeless scenes outside and the contemporary design inside.

Each space is a study in masterful composition.”

Many of The Rocks’ original winding pathways have

sadly been lost. That’s why The Harrington Collection will

reinstate paths and spaces reminiscent of the past, by

creating charming new places to appreciate and explore.

The worn sandstone Cumberland Stairs will be

enhanced by a new wider southern stair and courtyard to

be known as Cambridge Lane, which will include

the Cambridge Lane Providore.

This vibrant area will reflect the true village character of

The Rocks. With an essential ingredient providore, a café

and landscaped al fresco dining, this unique setting will

sit at the very heart of The Harrington address.

Welcome to the Gloucester Terraces. Offering the rare opportunity

of individual addresses to each street-facing home, these are Sydney’s

seven most impressive double-storey townhouses.

Fronting onto Gloucester street and surrounded by heritage buildings

of varied scale and character, the Gloucester Terraces pay homage to the

existing stoop typology and external stairs in the street, adding yet another

layer of richness to The Rocks’ ever-changing landscape.

Each impeccably detailed two and three-bedroom townhome boasts

strong connections to the textural streetscape, with the western orientation

allowing interiors to be flooded by magnificent afternoon light.

At last, we welcome you to Bakers Terrace, and your own iconic moment in

The Rocks’ history. Built in the late 1800s with original frontage onto Gloucester Street,

this component of the collection consists of just two extraordinary heritage offerings.

The three-bedroom Bakers Terrace homes are meticulously restored in keeping with

the heritage overlay. Contemporary detailing is bordered by theatrical ceilings and

historic frameworks, combining to form an uncompromising array of historic

and modern Sydney living in one signature address.

The textures and colours of The Rocks are a unique reflection of its history and

topography. Where once upon a time, modest daub shacks mingled with finely detailed

brick buildings. Where grander homes were gouged out of sandstone, perched on

excavated rock and sited on multiple levels. Where even today, the beauty of modern

architecture adds new layers to one of Australia’s oldest stories.

The Argyle Cut – Started in 1843

LORD NELSON HOTEL

Trading since 1842

This grand Georgian-style establishment has welcomed many generations of Rocks locals and visitors through its big and sturdy doors. Trading since 1842, it’s claimed to be one of Australia’s oldest surviving pubs and was named in commemoration of Lord Horatio Nelson himself.

ARGYLE CUT

Started in 1843

One of the most incredible engineering feats of its time, the Argyle Cut underpass was cut from a giant sandstone cliff. Workers chipped away by hand until explosives were later used. Today, it forms part of Sydney’s Vivid festival when it is seen in a whole new light.

THE HARBOUR BRIDGE

Opened 1932

Still the world’s largest steel arch bridge, this Sydney icon took six million hand-driven rivets, 53,000 tonnes of steel, 1,400 workers and a grand total of eight years to build. Today, it carries traffic and avid bridge climbers as well as fun-runners, in moments that continue to evolve.

OBSERVATORY PARK

Developed in 1856

The site of the Sydney Observatory was used in early settlement as a windmill. Later, a fort was built on the hill to defend the colony from possible attack. In 1856, it became an Observatory and gathering place for events like the opening of the Harbour Bridge in 1932.

THE OPERA HOUSE

Completed 1956

A little-known Danish architect by the name of Jorn Utzon had a vision for a curved, sculptural building on the harbour, derived from the surface of a sphere. In a moment of pure creativity, he broke convention and changed the face of The Rocks – and the nation – forever.

THE AUSTRALIAN HOTEL

Opened in 1824

In 1824, the first incarnation of The Sydney Gazette announced that the Australian Heritage Hotel was open for business. It moved to its current location in 1900 and has since become an enduring establishment with its original awnings, etched signage and saloon doors.

Harbour Rocks Hotel – Constructed: 1890
