On The Market: The Private Estate Of Melbourne's Most Celebrated Garden Designer
At On The Market, we explore numerous property listings to highlight the finest homes, ranging from waterfront palaces to thoughtfully crafted studio apartments. Australians tend to think a lot about the property market, though they may not always admit it. Still, it is clear that not all homes are equal.
Heritage homes in Sydney offer exceptional charm and grandeur, especially those with palatial scale, rich history, and stunning locations. One such property is Potts Point’s "Jenner House," originally designed in 1868 by renowned Australian architect Edmund Blacket. In 1881, Thomas Rowe added a third level, enhancing its architectural significance.
Currently back on the market through Gavin Rubinstein’s office, Jenner House presents a unique chance to reimagine one of Potts Point’s most magnificent landmarks. Approved development plans allow for a transformation that maintains the heritage while introducing modern upgrades.
