Built in 1906 and one of Seaforth's original residences, this elegant Federation home sits high and proud at the apex of a blue-ribbon street amidst meandering gardens with paved terraces and clipped hedges. Bearing all the hallmarks of this much-admired style, including a graceful double fronted façade with gabled roof, breezy wraparound tiled verandah, stained glass windows and soaring decorative ceilings, charming 'Highview' has been the cherished home of one family for more than three decades. Opened up and added to over the years, the sympathetic extension harnesses spectacular panoramic views that stretch across Middle Harbour and the city and north shore skyline and delivers the comfortable liveability a modern family seeks.
