Repost 2019:
The really rather delightful #SheridanClose on #StKildaRoad, #BernardEvans, 1953. I was surprised when it appeared amongst the best of Melb in the 1999 guide book Melbourne Architecture, but now I’ve had a close look, it’s worthy, a well crafted design blending Modernism with Georgian, all in variegated cream brick. And an interesting layout – when pre-war flats faced a central garden, these face out, held above a lot of parking, with the side wings angled a bit and zig zag windows looking towards the boulevard (but really still mainly looking to the sides).
The penthouse is for sale, currently featuring antiquey Toorak good taste furniture.
Update 2026 : last time I posted I got a few responses saying they lived there, or used to, and loved it. And that it’s company share.
