The house was designed by Frank Fox & Assocates and constructed in the early 1960s. The 2 storey house refernces Frank Lloyd Wright and is included in the Elizabeth Bay Conservation Area.
In December 2021 Michael Fox Architects were engaged to carry out investigations, modifications and upgrades to the residence.
The design has been of enormous benefit as it is allowing us to continue to live in our own loved home as we age. The improvements are not only luxuries but necessities for us to live, work and entertain comfortably.
The changes and environmental efficiencies including lift, insulation and double glazing will benefit those living in the house far into the future.
