'Fenner House' - Architectural Icon in the Domain Precinct

Expressions of Interest Close Tuesday 1st September 3.00pm.

Exclusively situated just metres from the Royal Botanic Gardens, this landmark solid brick modernist residence designed by acclaimed architect Neil Clerehan was the recipient of the Architecture Medal, awarded House of the Year in 1967 and added to the Victorian Heritage Register in 2016 for its architectural significance.

Much admired and retaining its original integrity, the distinctive home has been brilliantly designed around three glorious courtyards. Reflecting modernist architectural themes that were ahead of their time, exposed brick walls, timber ceilings and floor to ceiling glass are displayed throughout. The wide entrance hall flows through to the generous main bedroom with built in robe and fully tiled ensuite, a second double bedroom with built in robes, a fabulous sun-drenched home office or 3rd bedroom and a bright skylit bathroom. All rooms enjoy tranquil outlooks to the central courtyards. Also overlooking gardens, the inviting dining room is adjacent to the well-equipped original kitchen with a casual dining area. Palatial in scale, the light-filled living room with bespoke joinery opens through full height glass sliders to a central courtyard with pond and to the leafy north-facing paved garden oasis. Additional features include ducted heating and cooling, cloak room, large wine cellar, laundry and double garage.

In a premier Domain precinct location near Domain Road’s numerous cafes and restaurants, Anzac station, trams and elite schools, this is a unique opportunity to take over custody of a significant architectural icon while considering options to sympathetically add modern comfort and luxury (STCA).
