ReclaYm House / Luigi Rosselli Architects
Briefly

The residence, built in the late 1930s, showcases classic Art Deco architectural elements. It is situated near several other homes designed by Luigi Rosselli Architects. The home is located on a hilltop, offering expansive views of Sydney Harbour and the city. However, the steepness of the site proved difficult for the previous owner, prompting a move to a residence with easier accessibility and fewer stairs. The home retains an austere facade reminiscent of Scotland sur Med, contrasting with its dynamic interior.
Residing in good company, situated as it is in close proximity to a cluster of other Luigi Rosselli Architects designed homes, and built in the late 1930s, internally this house holds a number of desirable Art Deco features; externally, however, its original facade was an austere pastiche of Scotland sur Med.
Located on a hilltop, the home commands eagle's nest views of both the city and Sydney Harbour, but the trade-off for such blessed vistas is the steep sloping site the house is built on.
The aspect that sadly became too difficult for the previous owner—a wine merchant and widower—who moved out in favour of somewhere with fewer stairs and gentler gradients.
