Kintail

Built by Myles McRae in 1888, this substantial Victorian classified mansion holds significant historical importance both locally and regionally. The large two storey mansion is the original homestead of the area and rests on the highest point in the district. Kintail is a large, well preserved and restored Victorian Italianate mansion in the filigree style. This home is a rare offering considered to be the most iconic home in the area.

Kintail was built of rendered masonry construction with a hipped slate roof and ornate cast iron balconies. The property offers an abundance of rarities which include:

- 7 elaborate bedrooms, three with access to the verandah
- High 12ft original pressed metal ceilings (Wunderlich Company)
- Large formal living and dining rooms
- Original restored cedar timberwork throughout
- 8 marble fireplaces
- Over 1,500 square metres of land
- Landscaped gardens
- Separate billiard room retreat at the rear
- In-ground pool with grassed yards
- Off street parking for up to 6 cars
- Panoramic views of the area

This landmark mansion has had few owners since it was built in the late 19th century when it represented a time of substantial residential development and business prosperity in the Kogarah Municipality. The mansion has been beautifully preserved and restored with excellent detail. Welcome to Kintail.
