The grandeur of a Tudor Revival mansion dating from 1936 is restored with glamorous opulence inspired by London’s Annabel’s Social Club. Set within an expansive estate in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales, Exeter House is a striking example of heritage codes blended with French neoclassical romance. Greg Natale captures the jewel-toned motifs and richly layered palettes typical of Tudor-style interiors while brightening the overall scheme with soft shades of sky blue and blush.

Every aspect of this commodious mansion has been restored to revive the residence’s stately character, including five bedrooms, each with its own ensuite and walk-in robe, a drawing room, sitting room, formal and informal dining rooms, kitchen, bar, library, billiard room, natatorium, and grand ballroom.

Blending the refinement of French Revival style with country expressions, the mansion exudes brilliance throughout. Fixtures include tessellated tiles, Versailles oak floors, baronial wall panelling, traditional cabinetry profiles, and quatrefoil ceiling motifs that highlight the estate’s heritage. A curated collection of 16th-century English and 19th-century French pieces furnishes the property, complemented by floral and tweed wallpapers and fabrics, velvets, gilded wall panelling, and ornate ceiling motifs that add depth and dimension to each space.

Exeter House is a rich illustration of how the historic fabric of Tudor architecture is thoughtfully and meticulously preserved while being enlivened by the bold melange of artistry in its furnishings.
