A masterful example of mid-century Australian design, this substantial waterfront home was crafted by lauded modernist architect Nino Sydney and remains exceptionally faithful to his meticulous vision. The design harnesses classic mid-century signatures such as cantilever levels and wraparound balconies that jut out towards the peninsula. The spectacular northeastern vantage captures magnificent views across Lane Cove River and out to Sydney Harbour, stretching to the Harbour Bridge and city skyline . Architecture and interior design work in perfect harmony to capture a spirit of glamour and entertaining. A series of expansive living spaces link to the poolside entertaining via a dramatic outdoor staircase that – matched with the large pool slide – feels both playful and cinematic. Sensational preserved finishes, architectural moments and design flourishes celebrate the cohesive vision and bygone grandeur of this 1960s showpiece. More than that, it is superbly suited to contemporary family life with its abundant and versatile living spaces and proximity to Hunters Hill village, elite schools and Alexandra street ferry wharf. Access exclusive peninsula lifestyle via the private jetty, mooring pen and boatshed. A dream.
