Imbued with historical significance, the beautiful 'susannah blue' c1834 provides a rare opportunity to own a beautifully conserved share of McMahons Point's earliest settlement. This Victorian Georgian sandstone cottage was part of an 80 acre allotment granted by Governor Macquarie to Billy Blue who established the first ferry service across the harbour. The land was subsequently bequeathed to his daughter, Susannah.
It now features a modern expansion by architects Armitage & Johannsen which is considered one of the best examples of integrating contemporary and heritage architecture. A heightened sense of light and space is created by lofty high ceilings and vast glass panels which open seamlessly onto a wraparound deck immersed in the privacy of established garden surrounds. Rare for this area, there's also parking for two cars, with a secure garage plus additional car space.
Positioned on a north facing rear 508sqm parcel, this iconic home will have you on Blues Point Road in footsteps. Take a stroll to the harbour, commute to the city in minutes by ferry, bus, train and enjoy the parks nearby. A great lifestyle for all ages.
