Gracing one of Pymble's prestigious streets, Coolaween House at 63 Telegraph Road is a distinguished c1920s residence of extraordinary scale and beauty. Commanding a 1,474sqm parcel framed in exquisite gardens by the acclaimed late Peter Fudge, this magnificent estate will have you feeling as though you've swept away to a chateau along the South of France.
Meticulously reimagined with a custom designer finesse, the manor merges architectural significance with contemporary refinement that saw it beautifully honoured by Australian House & Gardens Magazine. Defined by luminous light, soaring ceilings and bespoke detailing, it showcases artisan craftsmanship in every room. Formal and informal zones unfold from a peaceful foyer entry, to ensure space for every member of the household to grow.
The chef's kitchen forms a wonderful focal point for catering meals with care, finished in vast stone benchtops and state-of-the-art European appliances, while flexible interiors spill to loggia terraces, where grand archways call you toward the breathtaking gardens and a sun-drenched swimming pool.
Accommodation comprises five bedrooms, a guest house including an ensuite plus a flexible teen retreat or music room also set upstairs.
Further features include working fireplaces, a lower garage, abundant storage, a study/library and stunning conservatory.
As you leave the property's never-ending allure of a soft terracotta facade, glamorous awned windows and shutters, you'll also find unrivalled convenience of both Pymble and St Ives village precincts within easy reach. You're minutes to Pymble Ladies' College, train transport, elite golf courses and stunning parks.
