MAGICAL POINT BLANK VIEWS OF THE ICONIC CITY, BRIDGE & HARBOUR

***OPEN FOR INSPECTION STRICTLY BY PRIOR APPOINTMENT***

A unique collector’s item offering an idyllic escape from today’s fast pace, this large home combines the romance of Spanish Mission & Georgian architecture. Originally built for the Mark Foys family (circa 1947) by the legendary architect F. Glynn Gilling – the home & the superbly landscaped gardens have been sensitively restored and renovated for elegant modern family living. With over 30m wide frontage and a prestigious location in a prized harbourfront reserve cul de sac, the postcard perfect panoramic views are simply breathtaking & the residence is a significant landmark from the water – yet this splendid indoor outdoor home is also blissfully private, peaceful & completely secure.
