The Dulwich Hill Row Housing project is a modest housing development providing richly nuanced housing in Sydney's inner-west. Whilst compact, each house is afforded a high level of amenity through considered planning and a arrangement that takes full advantage of a north-easterly aspect.

The site is located in a short dead end street terminating at the Light Rail Corridor, in an area that is undergoing a transition. Compact houses are being renovated to provide more substantial dwellings, and former factories are being demolished, for townhouse or apartment development.

A common housing type in the area, the Victorian Terrace, presented the most favourable model for redevelopment of this site. Terraces offer compact plans, good amenity, an economy of construction with greater surveillance and engagement of the street, thus generating a greater triple bottom-line return for highly sought after individual lot housing within the middle ring suburbs of Sydney.

The Dulwich Hill Row Housing Project resuscitates the Victorian Terrace house as a model to fulfil the demand for quality housing in the established middle ring suburbs of Sydney.
