Caerleon, Historic house in Bellevue Hill, Australia

The large red brick residence features stone dressings, terracotta shingles, multiple balconies, bay windows, leadlight windows, and ornate chimneys throughout the exterior.

Maurice Bingham Adams designed this house in 1885 for Charles B. Fairfax, establishing the first Queen Anne style residence in Australia during colonial expansion.

The architectural elements combine medieval and Elizabethan period influences with Australian adaptations, marking a shift from Victorian to Federation style residential design.

Located in the Woollahra Municipality of New South Wales, the property sold for 22 million Australian dollars in January 2008.

The residence contains specific architectural details personally crafted by Adams, including custom-designed iron overmantels and gates integrated into the structure.
