Promoting unsurpassed excellence and phenomenal space, this palatial C1938 Georgian home is undoubtably one of the area's finest estates. Originally built for the editor of The Sydney Morning Herald, it rests upon a magnificent 3035sqm of sprawling botanic beauty, with park-like spaces for the family to enjoy.
Nestled well away from the road and private, grand rooms are adorned with exquisite original joinery, featuring a full brick build and high ceilings throughout. The vast floorplan hosts a gracious formal lounge and dining, character rich library with exceptional cabinetry that opens to a private courtyard, a family room and unique conservatory that's a joy in winter.
The modern comforts haven't been forgotten with a high-end, state-of-the-art Carrara marble, Gaggenau and sub-Zero kitchen and contemporary bathrooms. Two master retreats include an opulent primary suite with a walk-in robe featuring crocodile skin cabinetry, dressing room, sitting room and balcony. This is a rare one-of-a-kind property and a part of the area's history promoting a finer way of life, steps to the bus, Wahroonga Public School and shops and moments to the station, Knox and Abbotsleigh.
