Coronation Time for the New King – this is your chance to claim the crown… Perched proudly at the very top of Henderson Heights, this extraordinary estate is unlike anything else on the market. Set on an expansive 35,584sqm (8.8 acres) of land on the rural–urban boundary, it offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to secure one of the last remaining grand lifestyle holdings in this prestigious location. Built by GJ Gardner, this single-level, high-ceiling brick and tile mansion combines scale with sophistication. Boasting 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, multiple living areas, and multiple master bedrooms with ensuite, it’s designed to accommodate large families, guests, or multi-generational living with ease. Every space has been crafted to capture the sweeping views, making you feel like the rightful King (or Queen) of the Hill.

Now, as they look to downsize, the question remains: will your family be next to write its story here?
