Last Listing description (November 2018)

A well renowned, gracious home, 'Belvedere' was built in 1934 for Alfred Charles Hake (Charlie). Hake, once a well-known local barrister and an alderman for the Albury Council, was a lover of beautiful things. He therefore commissioned one of the most influential architects of the time, Edward Fielder Billson, to build his family home. Billson, who began his career under Burley Griffin, was responsible for many magnificent buildings throughout the country. This grand home has the original features of Art Deco architecture, and is as elegant and strong today as when it was first built. 'Belvedere' is loaded with rich historical value and possesses uncapped potential, 720 Forrest Hill Avenue is truly a remarkable offering rarely seen within the Albury market.
