The Pavillion – An Architect-Designed South Leura Sanctuary with Versatile Studio
Offered for the first time since its construction in 1997, The Pavillion sits quietly within a private, leafy lane in coveted South Leura. Inspired by a French orangery and architecturally designed to harmonise with its garden setting, this elegant home offers tranquillity, privacy and an effortless connection to nature.
Expansive steel-framed windows and French doors invite the outdoors in, filling the home with light throughout the day. In the evenings, the living room becomes a serene retreat, warmed by a Cheminee Chazelles fireplace and framed by charming Juliet balconies. Recycled Kauri pine floorboards and bespoke floor-to-ceiling cabinetry provide both character and practical separation between the living spaces. Recently updated, the kitchen features solid-surface benchtops, custom cabinetry to the ceiling, a walk-in pantry, and premium Neff appliances, ideal for both everyday cooking and intimate entertaining.
Upstairs, five beautifully proportioned bedrooms enjoy garden outlooks and abundant natural light. The master suite includes a walk-in robe and ensuite, with a second bathroom servicing the remaining bedrooms.
A major highlight is the substantial studio above the double garage. With private access, a kitchenette, bathroom, recycled Kauri timber flooring and a striking arched window, this flexible space is ideal as a self-contained guest retreat, granny flat, home office, creative studio or accommodation for multi-generational living.
Outdoors, the horticulturalist designed garden is a true delight: low-maintenance yet richly planted with year-round interest. Fruit trees including apples, pears, kumquats and figs combined with birches, wisteria and banksia rose to create inviting spaces for outdoor dining and quiet reflection.
Additional features include:
