Overview

Architect-redesigned Victorian Italianate family home and entertainer

A freestanding 1890s Victorian Italianate residence in one of Stanmore's wide tree-lined streets, this home is architecturally reimagined for contemporary living. Behind its elegant façade, original character and considered modern design come together with an exceptional sense of scale and proportion. With separate sitting, living, dining and study spaces, each room has an abundance of natural light and air flow. The rear two levels open to a beautifully conceived garden with outdoor fireplace and cedar tub. This creates an inviting setting for entertaining or enjoying the tranquility of the garden through every season. A lower level adapts effortlessly as a fourth bedroom, additional retreat, teenage space or second home office. Perfectly positioned, it's steps to Stanmore village life with its vibrant dining and quaint shops, Weekley Park and Stanmore Railway. Nearby schools include Newington College, St Michael's Primary and Stanmore Public School.
