Magnificent ‘Highroyd’ is amongst the finest surviving examples of late-Victorian Gothic architecture anywhere in the world and one of only three remaining mansions within the iconic ‘Witches’ Houses’ which have achieved almost mythic status at the northern end of Johnston Street. Built in 1886 by renowned master builder John Young, the residence has been returned to prominence through a two-decade restoration commenced in the late 1980s by its current owners in collaboration with David Springett of Paragrid Architects: the practice was awarded the 2009 National Trust Heritage Commendation Award for its meticulous conservation work on the estate. Stonework, verandahs, gargoyles, stained glass and tessellated tiles were meticulously reinstated, while an indoor swimming pool was introduced with remarkable sensitivity creating a home that honours its storied past whilst embracing modern comfort and functionality. Grand in scale and magnificently detailed, it offers the flexibility of multiple living zones and generously appointed accommodation including the option of private self-contained suites ideal for extended family. Embraced by manicured gardens radiating a sense of both seclusion and ceremony, and with commanding city skyline views encompassing the Sydney Harbour and Anzac Bridges, ‘Highroyd’ is a once-in-a-generation opportunity; an irreplaceable Annandale landmark of historic beauty and enduring prestige.
