Beautifully positioned in prestigious Barry Street, this magnificent solid brick Federation residence has been transformed, in essence, into a brand-new home. Complemented by a captivating light-filled contemporary extension that provides space and luxury set in secure, secluded landscaped gardens in the tranquillity of Studley Park. Attributed to acclaimed Federation era architects Ussher and Kemp, the charming Federation facade features a complex gabled roof with grand ornate chimneys.
