Raheen, Italianate mansion in Kew, Victoria, Australia.

Raheen is a two-storey Italianate house of red brick with cement render at 94 Studley Park Road, Kew, with a four-storey tower over the entrance and a single-storey extension. It was designed by William Salway in an asymmetric, arcaded form and retains its Italianate garden, outbuildings, fence and gates.

Construction began in 1870 for Edward Latham, founder of the Carlton Brewery, and an extension followed in 1884. From 1917 to 1981 it was the official residence of Archbishop Daniel Mannix and four later Catholic Archbishops of Melbourne. The Church sold it in 1981, and Richard Pratt and his family bought it that year.

Raheen's name comes from the Irish word for "little fort". Edward Latham, founder of the Carlton Brewery, built it in the 1870s; barrister Sir Henry Wrixon later lived here. The house and gardens are occasionally opened for charitable events, and the property remains the principal Australian residence of Anthony Pratt.

Raheen is a private residence at 94 Studley Park Road, Kew, and is not open to the public on a regular basis. The house and gardens are occasionally opened for charitable events, so visits depend on those occasions rather than on daily opening.

The Irish name 'little fort' is not matched by any defensive architecture: Raheen was designed by William Salway in the Italianate style, with a four-storey tower over the entrance and an arcaded, asymmetric facade of red brick and cement render. The name likely nods to Edward Latham's Irish origins rather than to any fortification.
