Framed by century old park-like gardens and sequestered behind secure gated entry and garden walls, Roseburn' enjoys an exclusive Warrawee address in a tightly held enclave, unrivalled for discretion & privacy. This historic estate was designed by renowned English architect Howard Joseland and commissioned at the time by George Gillespie of Anchor flour mills. A quality land holding of this significance rarely comes on the market.
The architectural mastery of this notable residence is reflected in the scale of the generously proportioned and light infused rooms, which give a true sense of grandeur. The stately formal and casual living areas, Master and second bedroom as well as the alfresco entertaining, pool and BBQ terrace, tennis court and gardens are blessed with a northerly aspect.
Set over three levels, Roseburn' proffers unparalleled accommodation and the inspirational hallmark finishes anticipated in homes of this era. The impressive internal floor area of 600 sqm offers superb living and entertaining options for both formal and informal gatherings, whilst the artistry of the expansive grounds elevates this property to another level. The true heritage of Roseburn' as a full brick residence of distinction would benefit from a contemporary upgrade to revitalize and blend the existing exquisite elements with the requirements of a modern lifestyle.
