A rare surviving example of Sydney’s majestic past, the magnificent Italianate sandstone mansion ‘Bomera’ was built in 1856 for colonial merchant William McQuade and his family. A significant Sydney harbour estate and the former Naval Maritime Headquarters, this opulent marine villa is surrounded by manicured park-like grounds at the northern tip of the Potts Point peninsula. A meticulous restoration and revival under the guidance of heritage architects Graham Brookes & Associates has returned this historic estate to its original beauty while creating a world-class residence commanding unrivalled northerly views over the harbour.
