Broomhill, a grand historic residence designed by Mason & Wales in the 1870s, is a rare opportunity to own a landmark home rich in heritage and timeless elegance. Originally named “Bryndwylt”, it was commissioned for architect Nathaniel Wales himself and later significantly expanded by prominent businessman John Sutherland Ross in the 1920s. The result is a property that blends character, scale, and craftsmanship in a way few homes can.

Set on a generous 1,459sqm flat, sunny section, the home offers approximately 640sqm of floor area. A tree-lined driveway leads to a double garage and the home’s impressive bluestone façade, where a covered porch opens to a grand entrance foyer with high ceilings, stained glass, and a sweeping staircase. Inside, the layout includes multiple formal and informal living rooms, up to seven bedrooms, three bathrooms, a service wing, a large main kitchen, a second kitchen, and an additional upstairs kitchenette, ideal for extended family, hosting, or flexible living.

The northwest-facing backyard captures excellent sun and offers a private outdoor area with a relaxing rural vista, thanks to the home’s elevated position. The spectacular billiard room, with stepped timber floors and a striking stone fireplace, is a standout feature. The master suite includes a walk-through wardrobe and ensuite bathroom.

Heating is provided by diesel central heating, open fireplaces, and heat pumps. Located just a short walk to cafés, parks, excellent schools, and only minutes from the CBD, the home combines heritage charm with urban convenience.

A much-loved family home, it also presents exciting flexibility, continue as a grand residence, explore boutique accommodation potential, or consider future investment (subject to consent). A truly special piece of Dunedin’s architectural legacy.
