The result is a home of remarkable depth and sophistication, where the elegance of the original architecture is balanced by a considered contemporary extension designed around family life, entertaining and the spectacular northerly outlook over Snails Bay to the Harbour Bridge. A pavilion-style addition forms the social heart of the home, with expansive living and dining spaces opening to a limestone terrace, landscaped gardens and a saltwater pool and spa. Interiors retain the grandeur of the original home through ornate ceilings, leadlight windows and elegant formal rooms, while high-end finishes and heated limestone floors, introduce a refined contemporary layer. The outdoor design by Secret Gardens provides a private, immersive setting, while a double lock-up garage, lower-level wine cellar and exceptional storage complete this residence.
