Distinguished by its striking bluestone and white-rendered facade, complete with pilasters and Italianate tower, this one-of-a-kind ‘mini mansion’ is a home that definitely stands out from the crowd. Built for - and possibly designed by - surgeon James Robertson c1859, it graces an allotment of approx. 433sqm in prestigious Richmond Hill.
- Loved and cherished by its current vendors, this stunning and incredibly unique home is being offered for the first time in nearly 40 years.
- Steeped in history but with an eye to the future, among its many highlights are a choice of versatile living areas, up to four bedrooms and kitchen across multiple levels.
- Perfect for entertaining, the home’s main living/dining area and primary kitchen spill seamlessly outside to the private rear courtyard.
- Ornate fireplaces can be found in both the elegant lounge and tranquil sitting room/library, while a generous storage room is located on the lower ground-floor level.
- With up to four bedrooms – or three and a study – the home provides the flexibility family’s desire as lifestyle needs evolve.
- A picture-perfect bathroom, hydronic heating, rustic hardwood floors and warm timber ceilings are all highlights, along with solar panels, multiple balconies & the convenience of carport parking.
- Ever-changing city-skyline views can be enjoyed from the tower, whilst the established gardens with paved patio create an idyllic setting for effortless open-air enjoyment.
And while the home itself is bound to impress, its location will no doubt seal the deal.
