A splendid residence, designed by the celebrated Melbourne architect Rodney Alsop, was erected c.1910-12.It is glorious; not only for the handsome Arts and Crafts home which is the centrepiece of the garden, but for the extraordinary selection of trees furnishing the exquisite tapestry of garden rooms.
