'ROSSDHU' A STATELY ASHGROVIAN
A hallmark of 1920’s architecture, ‘Rossdhu’ was built in 1928. It was the end of the roaring twenties, a prosperous time for all and a time where many stately homes of note were constructed. One of the last remaining originals, this fine example of an Ashgrovian occupies a level 822m2 block on the crest of Hibiscus & Kauri - two of Ashgrove’s finest avenues.
Fronted with a grand gabled roof and wrap around verandas, it is rich in original period detail and classic features - porthole entry, bay windows, secondary side gable, vertical joinery and French doors opening to the verandas.
Superbly positioned on a substantial north-east facing block, this street proud original offers the possibility of an idyllic family lifestyle within walking distance to Marist College, Mt St Michaels and acres of nearby parkland.
A preserved piece of Ashgrove’s old world and lovingly kept by the same family for 54 years, a new chapter is ready to be written.
