Looking for some unique homes to inspect this Saturday in Sydney?
Domain has tracked down three historical properties with plenty of back-story, from the north shore to the southern suburbs.
Redfern
$2.4 million
The "reuse, recycle" mantra certainly springs to mind when you enter 19a Turner.
The build incorporates elements from historical structures, with a tale to be told in every corner.
There's a brick wall dating back to the 1850s, floors and doors from an old hospital, and a custom entrance made from Sydney ferry fragments.
BresicWhitney Darlinghurst agent Charles Touma has scheduled a December 2 auction.

Spread over three grand levels, this restored 1887 Italianate terrace has the proportions of yesteryear and modern luxury.
There's a leafy and sun-filled courtyard with ferns and climbing roses, arched hallway and breezy balconies on the top two floors. Its position on Wallace Street is a short meander to the water.
It'll be auctioned off on November 30 after a campaign led by Matthew Hayson of Cobden & Hayson.

6 Arden Road, Pymble NSW. Photo: Supplied
Avid fans of Australian architecture will delight in this heritage Pymble cottage.
The late, great Sydney Ancher designed 6 Arden in 1948, and his appreciation for European design shines through in the property's formal living and dining rooms, clear rectangular shapes, high ceilings and rustic paving in the courtyard.
Catch it at the December 2 auction through Luschwitz Real Estate's Jacqui Bridge.
