Overview

A superb Federation on a grand scale, "Pinehurst" is one of the Upper North Shore's most beautiful residences. This impeccably presented home, originally owned and renovated by renowned Sydney architect Harvey Little, offers a rare opportunity to own a prestige home in a blue ribbon location, close to rail, shops and leading schools.

The home offers 5 bedrooms, the master suite with en-suite and dressing room, 5 bathrooms, a formal reception room, banquet dining and gourmet kitchen overlooking spacious, casual living, outside eating area with stainless steel built-in barbeque, salt water swimming pool and North facing gardens.

Set in exquisite landscaped hedged gardens, this 1913 gem enjoys an excellent flow from formal to informal entertaining areas, with all entertaining areas overlooking and opening out onto a stunning private garden, complete with pool, sandstone flagging and rockery walls lined with tall conifer hedges.

Beautiful stained-glass panels surround the door in the grand entrance way and there are polished Kauri timber floors throughout. Most rooms feature ornate ceiling paneling with ornamental fretwork, and there are four open fire places and elaborate floor tiling on the front balcony and in the bathrooms, evidence of the home's Federation roots.

The formal dining room features a glass ceiling with automatic cover that allows the space to flood with winter warmth and light.

A gourmet kitchen with Gaggenau and Miele appliances adjoins a large casual living area and covered gazebo adjacent to the pool, providing the perfect indoor/outdoor entertaining and living space.

The residence has a 3-car garage, separate guest quarters/home office, reverse cycle air conditioning and security alarm.

The landscaped gardens have been meticulously maintained. English box hedges and azaelas line the circular driveway, while camellia hedges form a second wall adjacent to the huge sandstone walls that front the home.
