Andrew Bishop is selling his stunning terrace at Day St in Leichhardt.
Sydney builder Andrew Bishop has listed his luxurious inner west terrace following an extraordinary transformation of a derelict dump.
Mr Bishop who owns Arthouse Projects purchased the Day St property at Leichhardt in 2012 for $825,000 as a rundown shack.
The Victorian terrace now has five bedrooms and three floors over 209sqm following a painstaking renovation and an extension added at the rear

The main bedroom has a fireplace and plantation shutters.
This is how the space used to look.
Belle Property Annandale associate director Simone Azzi has set a $2.3 million price guide for the property and plans to take it to auction on August 22.
The terrace has a contemporary design, bright interiors and flowing spaces. Character features such as high ceilings, fireplaces and French doors have been kept and revitalised by Mr Bishop.
Ms Azzi said the property was perfect for buyers after an eastern suburbs style terrace without the price tag.
“This is not your typical inner west terrace, it feels very Paddington or Woollahra with its style and look,” she said.
The kitchen used to be tired and outdated.
Now it has a marble island bench and an integrated fridge.
As a result, Ms Azzi expects buyers from the lower north shore and eastern suburbs will take strong interest in the Day St terrace.
“These two groups are likely to be drawn because of the style, as well as the fact it offers far better value for money than what their areas do,” she said.
“The terrace is also perfectly located within walking distance of everything the inner west and Leichhardt is known for.”

Formed Gardens has completed a stunning transformation.
The kitchen is a huge improvement on the previous tired and outdated one. It has a marble island bench, gas cooking and a fully integrated Liebherr fridge. Downstairs also features a wall with built-in cupboards stretching from the kitchen to the staircase, as well as a formal living room with a fireplace and a casual living area.
The middle floor has three bedrooms including the main bedroom, which has seen plantation shutters replace security grills on the window.
The property is due to go to auction on August 22.
