One of just four landmark residences fronting Birchgrove Park, the three-storey home commands a rare park-side setting that speaks to both its heritage importance and enduring presence. Reimagined in 2025 through a meticulous collaboration between Benn + Penna and Cassandra Walker Design, the home has been transformed with exceptional sensitivity and architectural clarity. Original grandeur is honoured while a dramatic new double-height atrium introduces light, volume and contemporary expression while a landscaped garden and resort-style pool make for easy entertaining. A refined monochrome palette, layered materiality and bespoke craftsmanship create interiors of depth and sophistication, balancing moments of theatre with spaces for retreat.
