Gnal-Loa, A Rare And Significant Federation Estate On 1,015sqm, Bondi's Largest Residential Landholding

Holding a significant place in Bondi's early history and part of the landscape since 1908, Gnal-Loa stands as a fine example of Arts and Crafts architecture on a 1,015sqm landholding within the original grounds of Edward Merewether's Castlefield Estate. A property of distinction, the sprawling residence embodies the splendour and romance of the past while offering every contemporary comfort in an idyllic setting surrounded by flourishing gardens by Myles Baldwin Design. Recent renovation works have preserved the glory of one of Bondi's most significant residences with interiors by acclaimed designer Tamsin Johnson that allow the fine period craftsmanship to shine. With northerly views to the ocean as a tranquil backdrop to the upper level, the five-bedroom home comes with DA approved plans by Kelvin Ho of Akin Atelier to add a parents' wing and 60sqm guest house as well as approved plans by Myles Baldwin Design for a pool and entertaining area. This extraordinary estate is one of only a few remaining early 1900s manors in Bondi offering a rare chance to realise the vision and cherish a piece of history for generations to come.
