"Last year (2010), the top end of Killara's market notched up two notable sales through LJ Hooker Pymble agent David Johnson. 

• Both buyers were from mainland China.
• Deepdene, a trophy property on Springdale Road, sold for a record $12 million in June; another Springdale Road property sold for $8 million in November."^[1]

"Behind a charming heritage facade is a bright, contemporary, extensively renovated 6 bedroom home. Each bedroom is a light-filled private space with luxurious modern ensuite and estate views from either balcony, terrace or opening skylights.^[2] 

Welcoming Entrance to Deepdene

"Masquerading as a modest English cottage, this impressive house opens up on a grand scale to reveal a sandstone-columned castle towering over a lush 2000+ sq metre estate.

"This vast modern home sits discreetly behind an appealing 1930's facade on more than 2000 sq metres of glorious garden with exceptional views. In a superb east side location, just a walk to rail and amenities, this newly renovated residence will surprise you, with its elegant, understated entry hall flowing to an expansive and magnificent modern mansion. ^[3] 

"A multi-million dollar renovation has extended the luxurious accommodation. The entire house has been completely reconfigured and lavishly reappointed.

The result is a fabulously spacious, modern, private retreat. There is room for the entire family to come together and enjoy the facilities, or keep to themselves in their own individual spaces.

Parkland Retreat

The northerly aspect of the house with views of the beautiful grounds and valley beyond makes you feel you are living amongst the treetops. Much more like a mountain retreat than the usual Killara.

Accommodation

"Designed to enjoy the northerly aspect, family living spreads across numerous light-filled formal and informal rooms including a home theatre, an artist's studio, a spacious study, 6 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, a designer kitchen, a billiard room and more.

"Crisp architectural lines enhance the pleasure of living and entertaining in this remarkable home. With fully self-contained living areas throughout. Privacy and tranquillity are assured

Features

"A brilliant blend of character and contemporary features, this unique executive home offers grandeur of scale - with expansive level lawns as well as several large terraces with lovely distant views. There is a gas heated pool set in lush landscaping, a spa and poolside cabana plus triple garaging. This property offers a truly cosmopolitan lifestyle yet is in keeping with the understated charm of its blue ribbon location

"A private office features a lounge area with double-sided fireplace, wet-bar and ensuite. Bi-fold and french doors open to sunny terraces from all living and entertaining areas.

"Extensive grounds of over 2000 sqm include landscaped gardens with fishponds and private outdoor "rooms". The sun-drenched pool features a heated spa with waterfall and a generous poolside area with entertaining cabana, BBQ and outdoor kitchen / dining."

Addenbrooke, Bellevue Hill sold before spring marketing

By Jonathan Chancellor Wednesday, 14 August 2013

Addenbrooke, the stately Bellevue Hill trophy home, hasn't hung around for its formal spring trophy home marketing campaign.
It's attracted the attention of competitive interest.

• Overnight print speculation has it that the property developer Bob Ell may have secured the offering which was listed through Sydney Sotheby's International Realty agent Michael Pallier.
• Property Observer previously suggested it came with $33 million hopes by the downsizing vendors, Denis and Charlotte O'Neil.
• Addenbrooke last traded at its 1988 auction for $5.375 million having been the home of the late Sir Lionel Coppleson, the former hire purchase Custom Credit co-founding chairman, for close to five decades. He and his surgeon brother, Sir Victor, who was an author of a 1933 book on Australian shark attacks, had grown up in Wee Waa on the Namoi River in northern NSW. Sir Lionel was knighted in 1969.
• An earlier auction was in 1930 when it was noted Addenbrooke adjoined the homes of Sir William Vicars and surgeon Sir Charles Clubbe.

"Addenbrooke was listed on the quiet recently with hopes of $33 million through agent Michael Pallier, of Sotheby's International Realty. Pallier won't comment on the sale, but other sources tip the price at closer to $30 million.^[7]
Property Observer gathers it's set to come with $33 million hopes by the downsizing vendors, Denis and Charlotte O'Neil.

• Addenbrooke vendors, O'Neil and his wife, Charlotte, bought the 2120 sq m property on Cranbrook Road in 1988 for $5,375,000 from former Custom Credit chairman Sir Lionel Coppleson.
• The couple then added the adjoining 850 sq m block in 1994 for $1.25 million, when they bought it from the Consulate General of the Republic of Korea. That block remains for sale through Pallier for about $5 million.
• The downsizing O'Neils also sold their Palm Beach weekender for $7.5 million in late June
• "Settlement will confirm if this is the third highest sale in what is already a strong year for trophy homes:

Arguably one of Bellevue Hills finest family homes
"When privacy existed" .

• A glamorous recreated residence, ideal for both stylish corporate and relaxed family entertaining.
• This private contained estate fuses classical design with contemporary comforts and is sited on a large level, ultra secure North- North Easterly block of land.
