'Stoneleigh' A Landmark Victorian Regency Estate Reimagined for Contemporary Luxury

'Stoneleigh', an exceptional Victorian Regency Villa built in c.1860 is offered for the first time in 36 years. Recognised on the NSW State Heritage Register for its architectural elegance and historical significance, 'Stoneleigh' remains a landmark within the tightly held Darlinghurst Ridge heritage precinct, offering a timeless connection to Sydney's prestigious past.

Set within lush, landscaped grounds by Dangar Barin Smith, the home unfolds across multiple levels with a seamless connection between grand interiors and outdoor entertaining. A statement marble kitchen with integrated dining anchors the home, complemented by expansive living and dining zones that open effortlessly to a private terrace and tropical gardens. Equipped with a 3-metre deep mineral pool with geothermal heating that creates a sanctuary designed for both relaxation and entertaining year-round.

Accommodation is both generous and refined, with two luxurious master suites including a primary retreat featuring a Japanese Hinoki bath, alongside additional bedrooms, terraces and extensive storage. Every element has been carefully considered, from French Oak floors and hand-applied Marrakech plaster walls to bespoke lighting and advanced geothermal climate control throughout. The lower ground floor features a cellar with a functioning heritage well, adding a rare and historic factor.
