Rosemont, Woollahra, Heritage residence in Woollahra, Australia

The two-story sandstone residence features cast iron Ionic columns surrounding its verandahs and retains original joinery, including paneled doors and elaborate skirtings.

Alexander Campbell, a merchant banker and former member of the New South Wales Legislative Council, initiated the construction of Rosemont in 1857 using stone quarried from the property.

The Lloyd Jones family owned Rosemont from 1932 to 1981, transforming it into a social center where politicians and notable figures gathered regularly.

The estate has been reduced from its original 80 acres to less than one acre, with surrounding areas converted into residential developments over time.

The property maintains its slate roof and painted sandstone walls, complemented by gardens featuring new planting schemes, parterres, and decorative trellises.
