An Italianate terrace in Glebe that was previously the home to Alfie & Hetty Restaurant, has hit the market.

The story goes that Alfie White and Hetty Stapleton were neighbours at the double-fronted Glebe Point Road terrace in the early 1920s.

Hetty was the restaurant half of the building, as she was well known for sharing her cooking with locals. The upstairs part, Alfie, was a cocktail bar. Alfie had reportedly ran a speakeasy from his own upstairs rooms some 100 years ago.

Positioned at 207-209 Glebe Point Road, the property features high ceilings, fireplaces, timber floor boards, period features and sash timber window with views out to Sydney’s city skyline.

The two upper levels are dining space with a large commercial style kitchen and two bathrooms. Below is the basement used for storage leading to a small courtyard and the rear lane.

Built as two separate homes originally and with use rights as a restaurant, the space is also fit a for a myriad of commercial/residential uses and scope to increase building area significantly (STCA).

It has been scheduled for auction on November 17 through Michael Montano and Morris Toscano from Raine & Horne.
