Landmark Victorian Residence on Glorious 1,309sqm Grounds - Walk to Rail and Pymble Ladies’ College

Residing on a superb landholding of approximately 1,309sqm with a north rear aspect in Pymble's sought-after east side, 'Ku-ring-gai' c.1898, is an architecturally significant late-Victorian masterpiece showcasing immense street appeal and grand proportions throughout. Most notable as one of Pymble's first and finest homes, its name reflects the estate's importance to the Municipality as an example of pre-Federation development in the area and is offered now for the first time in three decades.

Characteristics generally impossible to replicate in modern builds include oversized rooms, intricate decoration and soaring 3.4m ceilings, with interiors tastefully modernised yet retaining architectural authenticity throughout. Those who appreciate timeless design, historic grace and everyday functionality will be enamoured by the indoor and alfresco living spaces with their intertwined period details and sympathetic enhancements. Embracing the full brick home are iron lace balconies and wide verandahs, some of which overlook a European-inspired sanctuary at the rear. The gardens have been planned for seasonal colour and fragrance and there is diversity in design and functionality with expansive travertine terraces, private lawns and a heated pool.

A rare and distinguished opportunity, this extraordinary home is in a class of its own; a touchstone of early 20th century life merging with the comforts and amenity of modern living. It enjoys a privileged position just 300m to Pymble village and rail, a short walk to Pymble Ladies' College and with close proximity to the major retail hubs of Gordon, St Ives, Chatswood and Macquarie.
