Privately set well back from the street and immersed within beautifully landscaped grounds, this remarkable c1968 residence is a rare architectural offering designed by acclaimed architect Robbie Elmes. Resting on approximately 1,425sqm of level land, the home represents a distinctive expression of Sydney's Modernist design movement, where clean architectural lines, natural materials and a strong connection to the landscape define the living experience. The home unfolds around a striking north-facing swimming pool that forms the visual centrepiece of the property, creating a tranquil resort-like setting framed by level lawns, garden courtyards and mature greenery. Expansive glazing, vaulted ceilings and exposed brickwork capture abundant natural light while establishing a seamless dialogue between interior spaces and the surrounding gardens. At the heart of the home, the spacious living room is anchored by a suspended gas fireplace rising from a sculptural concrete base - a striking focal point beneath soaring timber-lined ceilings. Multiple living zones and generous entertaining spaces extend effortlessly outdoors, creating a home equally suited to relaxed family living or larger gatherings. A home of rare distinction in a tightly held Upper North Shore location, offering architectural pedigree, generous landholding and resort-inspired living within walking distance of village amenities and a mostly flat 650m stroll to the station.
