22 Northland Rd, Bellevue Hill


Bellevue Hill is all about position and this grand five-bedroom home takes pole position opposite coveted Cooper Park.

Sitting on the corner of Northland and Holland Rds at 22 Northland Road, Bellevue Hill, the elevated north-facing two-storey house was designed by architect Michael Kilkeary to tick every family-friendly box inside and out.

Taphouse Group managing director David Mattick and his wife Georgina bought the home in 2015 for $4.2 million but are only moving across the street after records showed the pair paid approximately $27 million in an off-market deal on Holland Rd.

The home sits opposite coveted Cooper Park.


The ground floor features an open plan living zone with a choice of formal and informal spaces flowing onto alfresco areas front and back. In the contemporary kitchen, there are Carrara marble surfaces including a central island bench, sleek shaker style cabinetry in a deep olive green, as well as a six-burner Ilve gas stove, Miele appliances, Liebherr fridges and freezers, a Vintec wine fridge, Zip hydro tap and hidden butler’s pantry.

While the everyday family area spills out to the rear patio complete with a pool, the combined lounge and dining room feeds onto a large terrace overlooking the leafy park.

The home has a price guide of $11 million to $12 million and is being sold by Laing + Simmons Double Bay agents D’Leanne Lewis and Jacob Hannon.

“This area is fast becoming one of the most highly sought after pockets in Bellevue Hill,” Ms Lewis said.

“The home offers a seamless design of formal and informal entertaining areas with sun-drenched level gardens and a pool.”

Is this Australia’s most disgusting bathroom?

One floor up and the accommodation level houses four spacious bedrooms, each with built-ins, and three have private balconies. In the main, as well as a park-facing terrace with views to Darling Point, there is a dressing room style wardrobe and a designer bath ensuite.

The two top floor bathrooms feature travertine tiling and underfloor heating while a convenient lower level powder room sits conveniently beside the living spaces and a fifth bedroom or multipurpose rumpus room.

Whatever the weather the backyard is a private low maintenance retreat for all ages with high manicured hedges, a level lawn that is ideal for pets and children, plus a heated pool and built-in barbecue for year-round gatherings.

The home sits on almost 400 sqm.



Finished in 2013, the Northland Rd home has a long list of additional features including French oak parquet floors, 3m high ceilings, ducted and zoned airconditioning, skylights, custom made window dressings, a back-to-base alarm system, irrigation system, and a secure two-car garage with a vast storage area under the house.
