C1900 Federation Mansion with Tennis Court and Pool
Overview
This gracious three-level residence remains as impressive as it must have been when completed more than a century ago.
Crossing the threshold, you immediately notice its magnificent period features and the subtle ambience of a happy home that's been loved for a long time.
In a whisper-quiet cul-de-sac on the suburb's prestigious east side, the property has a wide street frontage, with remote-controlled gates (at both ends) opening to a paved driveway that leads to a porte-cochere and a period-style carport for three vehicles.
To the left of the entrance hall is a huge formal sitting room with a magnificent ornate ceiling, marble fireplace and doors on both sides opening to long verandas. Also off the hall are the formal dining room, a study (with library shelves and a fireplace), a corridor leading to the modern kitchen (with timber cabinetry and large Rosieres stove) and a casual dining area that opens to a timber deck with stairs down to the garden.
An internal staircase next to the casual dining area leads to the lower ground floor, where the family living room flows to a courtyard overlooking the tennis court and swimming pool. Also on this level are a large laundry, storerooms and a bathroom. Upstairs is an enormous main bedroom suite with a dressing room, ensuite, fireplace and French doors opening to a veranda. Also on the first floor are four big bedrooms and two bathrooms.
The high elevation of this Pymble precinct (it's about 150 metres above sea level) is evident when you stand outside on the covered veranda and gaze across the leafy district.
A few doors along Taunton Street is a pedestrian thoroughfare leading to Robert Pymble Park (which has a children's playground) and Pymble railway station.
This property has been Sold.
