Timeless character meets modern luxury.
In the heart of Warrawee's prized Golden Triangle, this is one of the Upper North Shore's most sought-after settings: peaceful, private and remarkably convenient. Just 500m walk from Warrawee Station, 600m from Knox Grammar and 700m from Turramurra Station and village shops, the home places exceptional schools, rail and everyday essentials within easy reach. Set on approximately 1,138sqm of north-to-rear land amid established gardens, it offers a wonderful sense of seclusion in the area's most prestigious pocket.
Designed by renowned interwar architect F. Glynn Gilling, 'Yeenunga' has undergone a remarkable transformation, retaining its timeless architectural character while creating something rare in a home of its era: expansive open-plan living flowing seamlessly to a spectacular covered alfresco area and private north-facing gardens. Thoughtful design brings classic charm and modern family living together effortlessly, with all the work done and everything ready to enjoy.
The connection between the expansive living area and covered alfresco is spectacular, creating the feeling of one vast indoor-outdoor room. With the formal dining room adjoining, the spaces flow beautifully together, offering a wonderful sense of openness for entertaining and everyday family life. The alfresco features a built-in BBQ, heating, ceiling fan and speakers, overlooking the private saltwater pool, level lawns and mature gardens to the north. A superbly appointed kitchen with a generous island bench and premium integrated appliances brings it all together.
A sweeping staircase, elegant curves, high ceilings and hardwood floors preserve the warmth and personality of the original architecture. Grand formal living provides another beautiful space to retreat. Five large bedrooms, three with their own private ensuites, and a dedicated ground-floor study give families plenty of space and flexibility. The generous master also features a large walk-in wardrobe, while a beautifully appointed family bathroom, guest powder room and practical mudroom complete this thoughtfully considered home.
Timeless character, exceptional living and entertaining spaces, and a prized Golden Triangle location. This is a complete family residence, ready to enjoy for years to come.
