About this space

Occupying the largest private landholding on Martin Road, Centennial Park Estate is a landmark residence of immense scale, character, and refinement—offering one of Sydney’s most prestigious and visually rich shoot locations. Originally built in 1908 and masterfully expanded by architect Espie Dods, this three-storey Arts & Crafts manor blends historic romanticism with modern luxury across 1,818sqm of north-facing gardens and interiors designed for cinematic impact.

The estate is framed by Paul Bangay-designed gardens and sits directly opposite the open expanse of Centennial Park. The grounds feature manicured hedges, level lawns, grand courtyards, and a resort-style pool—providing elegant outdoor backdrops for lifestyle, fashion, editorial, or high-end brand campaigns.

Inside, the home is layered with texture and tone, with soaring ceilings, fireplaces, marble finishes, and formal rooms that command presence. Key features include a stately ballroom-style lounge, grand dining room, library, study, and a casual living zone that opens to a feature kitchen with a sculptural marble island. Every corner of the home is shootable, adaptable, and inherently elegant.

Upstairs, the master wing feels like a suite within a suite, offering a private living space, expansive walk-in robe, and a recently renovated marble ensuite. The home also includes a self-contained apartment across two levels with its own entertaining zones—ideal for split-unit production setups or extended creative use.

On the lower ground, a versatile recreational level includes a billiard room, gym, dance studio, and cellar—each with their own cinematic potential.

Whether you’re shooting a fashion editorial, a high-end campaign, a film or television sequence, or hosting an ultra-private workshop, Centennial Park Estate delivers timeless grandeur and rare flexibility—all just minutes from the CBD.
