Stanmore House, Heritage residence in Enmore, Australia.

Stanmore House at 88 Enmore Road, Enmore, is a two-storey brick villa of late Colonial Regency design, symmetrical with a central entrance and gable break in the facade. It retains an original basement, a rear stone verandah, and interior cedar joinery, fireplaces, a geometrical staircase and an entrance doorcase with attached columns. In 1930 the front verandah was enclosed with a brick facade and three shops were built on the garden.

Mary Reibey bought the Pencilville estate from William Manning in 1847 and built Stanmore House nearby as a wedding present for her daughter Elizabeth and Captain Joseph Long Innes. Reibey died in May 1855; the house was let to tenants from 1861, including miller and politician James Pemell. Daniel Henry's 1872 purchase documents are the first record of the name Stanmore House, and Pemell's 1899 subdivision removed the eastern verandah and service wing.

The house displays original cedar joinery and multiple fireplaces that reflect how wealthy Sydney families of the 1800s chose to furnish their homes. These details show the daily comforts and tastes that mattered to the upper class.

The building is now divided into private apartments and commercial spaces, so public access inside is not available. Visitors can view the exterior facade and architectural details from Enmore Road to appreciate the original Colonial Regency design.

Stanmore House is the only known surviving house attributed to Henry Robertson, a leading Sydney architect of the first half of the nineteenth century. It is also the last of the large suburban villas left in Newtown and Enmore from before the railway line arrived and changed the suburb.
