6 Rupertswood Avenue Bellevue Hill, New South Wales – $28 Million

6 Rupertswood Avenue Bellevue Hill

True trophy homes are a relative rarity on the Sydney property market, but this Bellevue Hill mansion is exactly that, tucked away in one of the city’s most exclusive cul-de-sacs. The enormous property features five bedrooms, five bathrooms and two car parks, spread across two levels of unrivalled grandeur.

The residence was designed by the acclaimed Italian-born architect Luigi Roselli, who was also the man behind the design of the Australian Parliament House and homes for two members of INXS. The immaculately kept gardens were created by the team at Myles Baldwin Design, surrounding the home in lush greenery and insulating the property from the hustle and bustle of Sydney life.
