AUCTION CANCELLED - SOLD PRIOR TO AUCTION BY RACHEL HOBBS!
A TIME CAPSULE OF ARCHITECTURAL CHARACTER ON THE RIVER
Auction this Sunday 21st June at 11am on-site. To pre-register send an email enquiry. Phone registration available but limited.
Stepping into 72 Edinburgh Drive is like opening the door to another era - a bold and beautifully preserved 1979 architectural masterpiece where character, craftsmanship, and individuality remain proudly intact. Set on a sprawling 1764m2 block rolling toward the river, this is a home unlike anything else currently on the market.
From the moment you enter, the details tell a story. The original wall intercom with built-in radio still sits proudly in place, surrounded by vintage switches, textured finishes, and unmistakable design elements of the era. Cathedral ceilings soar above split-level living spaces, while natural light pours through expansive windows, illuminating the rich blend of brick, plaster, and timber-panel interiors that define the home's unmistakable personality.
Designed across a unique split-level layout, the home unfolds through multiple interconnected living spaces centred around a striking open fireplace. An original wet bar with cellar-style storage speaks to the entertaining culture of the time, while every level reveals another nostalgic feature - from the circular bathtub to the architectural lines that make this property feel more like a statement piece than a house.
Outside, the stories continue. An enormous empty pool with rock waterfall feature sits overlooking the river below - echoing memories of celebrations gone by and waiting for its next revival. Arched paving leads to a retro brick entertaining zone complete with built-in bar and BBQ area, all surrounded by established grounds and river outlooks that create a setting both peaceful and unforgettable.
