Created by renowned architect John Brogan, this much-admired single level home (c1930) in Killara's desirable east side showcases all the hallmarks of Brogan's English Tudor design, with solid brick craftsmanship, stunning leadlight casement windows, high ceilings and timber floors among its finer details. The current owners recently completed meticulous renovations and a characteristic extension utilising the skills of leading local architects Playoust Churcher, which together perfectly complement the timeless architectural beauty and gracious style of this exceptional residence.
The home is gently elevated on just under 900sqm with beautifully landscaped and fully fenced lawns and gardens, a wonderfully private northeast aspect and enjoys leafy outlooks to the protected bushland of Harry Seidler Reserve. Light filled throughout, its interiors provide a serene sanctuary for living and entertaining with a thoughtfully remodelled floor plan including a superb new kitchen and two elegant bathrooms, while several rooms enjoy intimate connections to the alfresco spaces.
There are many special elements combining to make the home unique, such as the extensive use of sandstone, the natural light and the intricate details reflecting a devotion to build quality and retained architectural integrity. The fact that the home is all on the one level will appeal to young families and downsizers, and the location further enhances lifestyle appeal. It's just 1.1km to Killara rail, within a short drive of Gordon Centre and Lindfield village, zoned for Gordon East Public and Killara High School, and easily accessible to other highly regarded schools and local recreation parks.
