Sadlier Residence | Source Architects

Sadlier House is a substantial Victorian Italianate Style Country home originally design by Matthew Sadlier which dates from the 1870’s. The house as found was in quite good condition for a property of this vintage but had suffered through a series of ill-conceived interventions at the rear.

The project saw the removal of unsympathetic veranda infills, and the creation of north facing living spaces that open to the expansive new landscaped gardens. An extensive renovation of the existing house was undertaken which included restoration of the fine cedar joinery work, seamless insertion of contemporary electrical and mechanical systems and insertion of a number of bathrooms to bring the property up to contemporary living standards.

The result is a beautifully restored house that offers all the modern services and facilities one expects of a property of this stature whilst retaining all of its heritage significance.
