1 Chase Avenue

Roseville Chase NSW 2069

The Stroud Stevens House has never been published - this is the first time that the house has been seen. The unknown residence has been designed by Wendy Lewin & Glenn Murcutt, the country's highest awarded architect - recipient of the prestigious 2002 Pritzker Architecture Prize.

It's like discovering an unknown painting.

The curved form of the rear of the house follows the rock shelf. Facing North, overlooking Middle Harbour, the house enjoys beautiful views from every principal space.

Perfectly sited on the block, the house encapsulates everything that one could hope for living in the natural environment; elegant, simple design; uninterrupted views of pristine reserve; the warming winter sun; protection from the summer sun and Southerly storms; minimal exposure to the West; cooling North Easterlies; and only 9.9km from the Sydney Harbour Bridge / 15 mins by car.

The design incorporates key design detailing as seen in Murcutt's most highly regarded residences:

- Recognised as an exquisite site by Lewin, the house has a minimal impact to site
- Signature Murcutt space planning: open-plan singular space; kitchen; to dining; to living; out to covered outdoor living
- Mechanical louvres in the main feature, pop-out, window box
- Designed to not require air-conditioning
- Insect screens throughout
- Captures the prevailing North Easterly
- Cross ventilation & fans
- Minimal exposure to the West
- Protected from the Southerlies by the rising block
- Simple, high-quality architectural design detailing throughout
- House & garage freshly painted with original colours specified by Lewin & Murcutt

We look forward to welcoming you to this very special piece of Australian residential design.
