Sitting proudly on 4,641sqm approx of valuable mainly flat land with dual access from
Northcote Road and Pulbrook Parade, in an elevated north facing position, is a grand old
lady of heritage interest from the Federation era just waiting to be lovingly restored to
her former glory. Overlooking Cockle Creek valley and featuring, 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom,
and formal lounge, classic Art Nouveau fireplaces with elegant surrounds adorn three of
the rooms. Traditional ceramic tessellated floor tiles are in the two front sunrooms
(once verandahs). The back verandah, currently consulting rooms, face the parklike rear
garden and DLUG. Well preserved original New Zealand kauri hardwood floorboards have
already been restored in the main rooms, the architraves are Australian Western Red
Cedar. Ceramic finishing pots sit atop the tall chimneys, and gorgeous stained glass in
doors and windows participate in calling you back to days gone by when things were built
to last as well as stand the test of artistic time. Other decorative features still in place
include pressed metal ceilings, terracotta ridge capping and finials, the front door is
elaborately paneled and set with stained glass sidelights, while casement windows to the
front and sides feature coloured leadlight. Zoned Residential A (low density), the site is
currently being used as an Educational campus ideally located next the Hornsby Hospital
precinct. This property presents a rare and unique opportunity (STCA) for developers,
investors and entrepreneurs alike to capitalise on a variety of options from full re-
development to subdivision of the land.
