Le Fanu House, Federation Queen Anne residence in Cottesloe, Australia
Le Fanu House extends across three floors with marble floors, high ceilings, six bedrooms, and six bathrooms situated directly across from South Cottesloe beach.
The residence, constructed in 1893 for Bank of Western Australia manager Henry Diggins Holmes, underwent major renovations by architect Percy William Harrison between 1898 and 1900.
The limestone exterior with Tudor gable details reflects the architectural preferences of Western Australia's wealthy residents during the 1890s gold rush period.
The property includes an eight-car garage, wine cellar, bar, and multiple entertainment areas spread across its 1,492-square-meter oceanfront block.
The house features a distinguished candle-snuffer roof tower, making it one of only five remaining properties from Cottesloe's initial development phase.
