A 1962-built award winning architectural home designed by Russell Jack of Allen Jack + Cottier in Wahroonga has been listed for sale.

Built in the Sydney School style, with references to Frank Lloyd Wright, it was the 1963 winner of the Wilkinson Award for outstanding architecture.

Built to be at one with nature, it is set among landscaped gardens, with fragrant shrubbery, ornamental features, mature Japanese maples and sweeping lawns.

There are also internal courtyards at the house set on a 1,534-square-metre Cleveland Street block.

It is for sale with a price expectations of $2 million plus through Jennifer Aaron Real Estate, with offers due by March 7.

‘It’s truly one of the North Shore’s most remarkable residences,” Jennifer Aaron said, adding it was in immaculate condition.

“This original Russell Jack home is an exceptional example of the renowned Sydney School,” she said.

The north-facing, one-level pavilion-style home has a master bedroom with built in robes and an ensuite, with a separate shower opening to a private courtyard atrium.

Details throughout the four bedroom house include western red cedar cathedral ceiling in the formal living room, clerestory windows and skylights.

It last sold in 1988 for $710,000.

It was elsewhere in Wahroonga where the architect built in 1956 for himself, with the three-bedroom Boundary Road bungalow that won the Sulman Medal a year later, remaining in his family until 2009 when sold for $1.06 million. 

In 2010 a proposed two storey pavilion at the neighbouring Boundary Road property was refused by planning authorities as likely to have an adverse impact on the heritage significance and setting of the adjoining heritage item.
