Art deco beauty – 24 Rickard Ave, Mosman.
This original 1930s art deco home in Mosman has come to market for the second time in as many years – and it offers not only a prime waterfront reserve location but a rare design that is brimming with possibilities.
The 1069sqm property at 24 Rickard Ave, has a 50m frontage and direct access to Sirius Cove Reserve. The walk to the harbour foreshore is just 80m.

The house itself is one of a kind, and has a multistorey glass block wall at the front. This rounded vestibule showcases a sweeping staircase and original terrazzo floors.
But if you think it looks pretty at the front, take a look at the back. Arches and rounded balconies, both covered and open catch the eye, and the privacy is impressive.

Richard Simeon, of Simeon Partners, said the property, known as Conway, had only ever had three owners.
The current owners bought the home in April with plans for a major renovation, but their plans have changed and they are moving to the upper north shore.

Formal dining.
There are three bathrooms.
Mr Simeon said they had done some work to the property, and there were also DA approved plans for renovations and to add a swimming pool.
“It’s incredibly eclectic – the staircase makes you feel you are in a theatre, it’s amazing,” he said.
“This really is a rare opportunity, to have a 50m frontage and be so close to the beach. We don’t see these properties come along for sale very often.”
The lounge room has a fireplace.
Relax.

With a price guide of $5.5 million, he is expecting plenty of interest, especially from local families looking to upsize.
