17 Linsley Street
Gladesville

Built in 1926 as a returned soldiers’ cottage and tightly held for 26 years, this beautifully evolved home captures the quiet poetry of garden living with a sense of warmth, and history . Thoughtfully refined to embrace its prized north-easterly aspect, it feels deeply connected to its surroundings, where interiors unfold through bifold doors to a sunlit alfresco courtyard designed for long lunches, easy entertaining and peaceful retreat. One of its most enchanting qualities is its relationship to the landscape. In a homage to its park-side address, the front garden has been intentionally left a little wild, transforming each spring into a fragrant drift of scented freesias. Beyond, the neighbourhood reveals a rare village-like calm, with native parkland, a creek and riverside boardwalk just moments away. Within an easy stroll of shops, buses and a connected, community-minded streetscape, a home of soul, serenity and timeless appeal.
