Celebrated for both its federation grandeur and classic sophistication, the prestigious and tightly held "Briar Bank" is finally available to the public. Winner of Willoughby Council's Alterations and Additions Award in 2010 for its exceptional redesign, this residence stands as a true testament to architectural excellence and enduring beauty.
Set on an enviable 923.2sqm block with dual access and perfectly elevated position, the residence is ideally located in one of Chatswood's most sought-after locations, surrounded by leafy and peaceful residential streets. Outlined by nostalgic verandas, guests are welcomed through immaculately presented English-style gardens that wrap around the property, creating a grand and inviting entry.
Inside, the original character has been beautifully preserved and enhanced, including the soaring ornate ceilings, original polished timber floors, and exquisite leadlight windows that bathe the interiors with natural light and charming ambiance. The new portions of the property have been reimagined with a focus on enhancing natural light and creating a greater sense of space and openness throughout, with seamless indoor-outdoor flow, and a harmonious transition from timeless charm to modern living. Every detail has been lovingly maintained, showcasing the pride of ownership in a home that has been tightly held and cherished. This is the first time this property is available in its current impeccable state-a rarely available opportunity to own a piece of Chatswood's rich heritage.
Presenting an ideal lifestyle for elegant family living and entertaining, this residence promises a once-in-a-lifetime offer to become established within a community-minded pocket close to bus transport, local schools, train and metro station and the vibrant Chatswood shopping precinct.
