This Turramurra home was originally designed by Bruce Rickard in 1970, and was remodelled by him again in the 1990s.
Bruce Rickard is one of Australia's most successful and enlightened architects.
The four-bedroom, U-shaped home is built around a secluded courtyard with a swimming pool. The house faces north-east, and has been designed for flexibility, with a study having its own entrance, and pairs of bedrooms at opposite ends of the house.
A monumental brick fireplace is the heart of the home. It is surrounded by built-in seating, bookshelves, and storage.
The pool is surrounded by sandstone paving and low-maintenance gardens.
