Yasmar, Historic estate building in Haberfield, Australia

The Yasmar estate features a U-shaped Greek Revival structure with sandstone walls, flagstone verandahs, and cedar doors near Parramatta Road.

Built between 1856 and 1858 by Alexander Learmonth, the property's name comes from spelling Ramsay backwards, referencing the influential family's connection.

The estate includes formal gardens with century-old trees, native Cumberland Plain species, and exotic plants reflecting nineteenth-century horticultural practices.

The property functions as a correctional services training facility and remains accessible to community groups through the Land and Property Management Authority.

A rectangular sunken brick pit exists in the garden, with speculation about its original purpose as either an early swimming pool or shading structure.
