The proud custodians of Balmain's most significant landholding speak of the profound privilege and joy of residing in a landmark so integral to the peninsula's rich history.

Exuding the privacy and serenity of a Southern Highlands retreat, Ewenton House is Balmain's grandest home on its largest parcel of land, nestled on 2,206sqm adjoining Ewenton Park by the shores of Sydney Harbour. Built between 1854 and 1872 in an amalgamation of Georgian, Victorian, post-Colonial and Italianate influences, the magnificent four-level sandstone residence is secluded among park-like perfumed gardens lovingly designed by Myles Baldwin and maintained by Amiel Van Ewyk.

Recognised by architects and historians alike, the residence echoes the warmth of family and friends who have graced its halls over almost two centuries. Interiors have been meticulously restored and replicated by skilled artisans, with every detail showcasing the original form, while contemporary comforts have been added for modern living. Extensive accommodation, living spaces, offices and recreational areas, including an indoor heated pool, allow people to move privately within the home. Each room has its own individual personality, with bespoke features crafted to suit its character.

Listed on the NSW State Heritage Register, Ewenton House is on the open market for the first time in its history, with this once-in-a-lifetime heirloom welcoming new owners who will form part of its important legacy.
