Know Your Place # 12
Our built environment is just as impressive as the fine landscape on which it has been constructed.
Eaglemont has many fine examples of residential architecture spanning 3 centuries.
High on the list of notable properties are those designed by Harold Desbrowe-Annear.
The Australia Institute of Architects has named its annual award for Residential Architecture after Harold Desbrowe-Annear.
He was a very influential architect in his era. We are privileged to have in Eaglemont multiple examples of his work - including the house he and his wife built for themselves.
Readers should be alert to opportunities offered by current owner Jane C - through Heidelberg Historical Society - for tours of the remarkable property that Jane and her late husband faithfully restored.
