Rona, Bellevue Hill, Historic house in Bellevue Hill, Australia
The sandstone mansion Rona stands on a north-facing slope of Bellevue Hill, featuring Victorian Rustic Gothic Revival architecture with two stories.
Edward Knox, founder of CSR Limited, established Rona in 1883 on a 6-hectare estate sub-leased from Frederick Tooth before ownership transfers.
The architectural design of Rona draws influence from Greycliffe House in Nielsen Park, reflecting late 19th-century Australian residential preferences.
The property underwent modifications in 1951, dividing the structure into two separate apartments while maintaining its historical character.
The mansion achieved a record-breaking sale price of 58 million Australian dollars in 2018, marking it among Australia's most expensive residences.
