22 Wattle Street, Killara, NSW 2071

A commanding aspect on signature Peter Fudge-designed parterre gardens immediately provides this magnificent full double brick residence or 'le grand maison' with a distinct sense of opulence and prestige - where expertly rebuilt and expanded interiors display European-infused sophistication and bespoke luxury to deliver the ultimate in family living and entertaining on a truly magazine-worthy scale. Offered for the first time in almost 30 years and comprehensively invigorated yet respectful to its architectural origins (c1935).

A multifunctional floorplan over two light filled levels, including a media retreat or optional fifth bedroom, combines with a continuation of the extraordinary gardens at the rear, including an all-seasons 'garden room', lush level lawn and in-ground swimming pool together perfectly complementing the interior and providing a sanctuary for entertaining in sundrenched north privacy. Among the many other highlights of this remarkable home is the beautiful custom kitchen, artfully envisioned and constructed by a professional cabinetmaker, resulting in finishes of rarely encountered refinement and exceptional craftsmanship.

The home is underpinned by a devotion to quality as evidenced by the meticulous attention to even the smallest details. From the gracious original rooms at the front of the house to the substantial open plan addition at the rear, it offers an environment where life can be enjoyed for generations to come. The home resides supreme in a dress circle east side setting in one of Killara's most illustrious neighbourhoods, within walking distance to the station and providing close proximity to a selection of esteemed schools, local recreation parks and shopping hubs.
