85 Victoria Road, Sydney, NSW 2027, Australia

Offered for the first time in 30 years, perfectly positioned and very private, this magnificent north facing stately residence occupies one of Bellevue Hill’s most coveted parcels of land and commands panoramic views across Sydney Harbour. It is set amidst exceptionally beautiful manicured gardens, with a full size floodlit tennis court, and an infinity pool.

 

This extraordinary three level home has been meticulously updated by renowned architect Howard Tanner. 

 

Expansive world class interiors of impeccable elegance and style display works by distinguished Australian, English and North American artists and sculptors. ‘Belhaven’ was once famously quoted by Sotheby’s Australia Chairman, Geoffrey Smith, as ‘an art collector’s paradise’. 

 

A level portico entrance leads to several formal and informal living and entertaining areas with impressive European influences throughout. The grand formal lounge and dining rooms open to northerly harbour views. An expansive and contemporary kitchen with its glorious sunroom boasts luxurious Calacatta benchtops and walls, a walk-in pantry, extensive sundrenched alfresco entertaining terraces and covered verandas. A sublime poolside sunroom, with concertina doors opening to the limestone terrace, overlooks the mosaic heated pool and a barbecue area. 

 

Upstairs – on one level – accommodation consists of an extravagant master suite with bespoke dressing room, and a lavish ensuite marble bathroom, with freestanding bath, underfloor heating, and spectacular harbour views throughout. Three further sizable bedrooms are flooded with natural light and, along with an enormous and versatile sunroom/study, also capture either sweeping harbour views or directly overlook the tranquillity and greenery of the tennis court and trees.
