A Federation treasure with a fine pedigree

A rare and prized offering, this grand Federation home was built in c1910 as the family home for William Henson, the former Mayor of Marrickville. Facing north and set on a substantial dual access corner block, the single-storey home proudly showcases the fine period craftsmanship of its heritage with beautiful ornate plaster ceilings featuring symbols of Australian pride with waratahs, lyre birds and flannel flowers elevating the interiors. Recognised as a fine example of Federation architecture and featured historically in Better Homes & Gardens, the four-bedroom home has only had three families in ownership in over a century serving as testament to the quality of the build and the appeal of its location between the village hubs of Summer Hill and Dulwich Hill. A fluid layout from front to back makes for easy living with gorgeous established gardens a joy throughout the seasons and access via Constitution Road to an oversized lock-up garage. Surrounded by great schools, this Australian classic sits comfortably in its setting with Johnston Park and Arlington light rail station at the end of the road.
