Architectural Brilliance in a Private Garden Sanctuary
Step into a rare piece of Australian architecture with Rolf House, a timeless Bruce Rickard design from 1962. Nestled on 936sqm of pristine, level land, this beautifully crafted double-brick residence celebrates natural materials, light-filled spaces, and seamless indoor-outdoor integration, enhanced by Rickard's extensive use of timber joinery-a hallmark of the Sydney School of Architecture.
Bathed in natural light thanks to its coveted north-rear aspect, the home embraces Rickard's signature design elements-exposed sandstock brick, expansive glass panels, cathedral ceilings, and a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. Floor-to-ceiling windows invite the garden inside, while an internal courtyard creates a private oasis. A motorised awning enhances the versatility of outdoor spaces, providing shade and comfort as needed. Every room enjoys serene outlooks, with lush, established gardens offering a stunning backdrop year-round.
Designed for both comfort and practicality, the home features four bedrooms and two bathrooms, with an open-plan living and dining area exuding warmth and character. A signature Bruce Rickard element, the central fireplace enhances the inviting ambiance. The thoughtfully designed layout includes a versatile rear living space, creating multiple living zones to suit various needs. Gas underfloor heating ensures year-round comfort, while a solar system boosts energy efficiency. The well-maintained kitchen and updated bathrooms offer immediate functionality, with exciting potential for modern enhancements.
The gardens are a true highlight, bursting with flowering plants and beautifully landscaped spaces that provide peace and privacy. A generous courtyard and alfresco areas invite relaxed entertaining, while the level, easy-care grounds make it ideal for families or those who appreciate natural beauty.
While move-in ready, the home presents an exciting opportunity for thoughtful updates to elevate its timeless appeal. With solid bones, a flexible layout, and undeniable architectural pedigree-free from Heritage or Conservation restrictions-this is a residence that will continue to inspire for generations.
