Barda House, newly completed and conceived as a luxurious private compound, embodies a sophisticated expression of contemporary design. This exceptional residence reflects the extensive portfolio of Walter Barda Design, one of Australia's leading architectural firms, and is widely regarded by experts as its finest work.

Nestled on a remarkable 900 sqm (approx.) block directly across from The Scots College and mere metres from Cranbrook, Barda House is a three-level sanctuary featuring five bedrooms and five bathrooms, with parking for six vehicles. From its exclusive north-facing position, the home offers breathtaking views of the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge, enhanced by over 280 square metres of meticulously landscaped gardens designed by Dangar Barin Smith.

The design language of Barda House is poetic, seamlessly integrating indoor and outdoor spaces with a commitment to world-class fixtures and finishes. Brought to life by the award-winning BAU Group-named Master Builder of the Year in 2024 - this home features interiors curated by Kirsten Bookallil of Stanwix Studios.

Every detail has been meticulously crafted, including the private Italian Filetti stone driveway and garage, highlighted by Barda-designed thermally modified Abodo timber paneling. The striking 'Barrimah' stone walling, featuring sparrow peck finishing, complements the 150+ new trees planted in the garden. Signature elements such as the curved zinc roof with solar panels and the luxurious Super White Dolomite that adorns the bathrooms, fireplaces, kitchen, butler's pantry, kitchenette, steam room, cellar, and Artusi BBQ station further elevate the property. Custom features include Barda's curved doors, ceilings, architraves, and robes, alongside Spanish Dekton porcelain floor tiles that flow seamlessly into the gas- and electric-heated mineral pool, complete with a custom Barda-designed cabana.

Barda House is designed for entertainment and comfort, with a French linen-padded cinema that accommodates 15 people, a wood-panelled dining room with a temperature-controlled wine cellar, and an industrial-grade gym. The marble kitchen and butler's pantry boast top-of-the-line appliances, while underfloor heating ensures comfort throughout.

Walter Barda describes the residence as a "sculptural, elegant ensemble" of refined materials, emphasising the seamless connection between spaces. Interior designer Kirsten Bookallil adds that the vision for Barda House was a modern sculptural space infused with the heritage of an Italian villa, creating an open and warm environment.
