Two men have been charged after $42 million worth of drugs were found stashed in suitcases in inner Sydney.

Police uncovered almost 120 kilograms of drugs in a search of a house in Pyrmont on Friday.

The haul included 61kg of cocaine blocks, 29kg of Ketamine and 27kg of MDMA pills in seven suitcases as part of a probe into a drug "safe house".

Two men aged 24 and 31 were arrested at the property and were each charged with three counts of suppling a prohibited drug in a large commercial quantity.
