A Cherrybrook family home, secured from Singapore

27 Gavin Place, Cherrybrook

Tudor style Cherrybrook house beside an illuminated swimming pool at dusk

01 / THE BRIEF

The home they had in mind.

The family’s next chapter called for a five bedroom Hills District home with character, transport connections and access to their preferred schools. They needed someone in Sydney to assess the options and guide the purchase while they remained in Singapore.

02 / THE APPROACH

The local expertise behind the purchase.

We inspected locally, assessed the market and kept the family informed across time zones. With competition from other buyers, we negotiated directly with the selling agent to secure the property before auction.

03 / THE OUTCOME

The result, and what it made possible.

The family secured a Tudor style Cherrybrook home in a quiet cul de sac, on nearly 1,000 square metres. The purchase brought together the character, space and local connections they wanted for their return.
