This residence combines classic design with luxury modern living. Featuring grand reception rooms and a large breakfast kitchen/dining room.

Internally the property spans just shy of 10,000 sq ft, over 4 floors with potential to expand further.

The leisure suite is a very tranquil space with a swimming pool, jacuzzi, gym and sauna.

The entertaining space is vast and versatile with a large games/cinema room and bar, not to mention a unique wine room with seating space.

Windy Howe is architecturally notable as an Arts & Crafts style residence, built in 1903 by architect F. W. Mee, using characteristic features such as clay tiled gables, roughcast rendered walls, and stone window surrounds, and details.
