A manor-like Victorian villa on a sunny corner block

Built c1883 as a fine example of Victorian Italianate craftsmanship, this freestanding villa stands tall and proud on a sunny dual-access corner block in one of the Inner West's most historic pockets, just 400m to Norton Street Plaza. Tastefully renovated retaining its authentic period grandeur, 'Glenrock' has been sympathetically redesigned to deliver exceptional flexibility of space and use.
