Eryldene, Gordon
Eryldene is a historic house in the Sydney North Shore suburb of Gordon, designed by the Australian architect William Hardy Wilson. The house and its garden, which is noted for its camellias, are listed on the Australian Register of the National Estate as well as the New South Wales heritage register.〔''The Heritage of Australia'', p. 2/33〕〔(State Heritage Register )〕
==The house==
Eryldene was built by Professor Eben Gowrie Waterhouse OBE CMG (18811977) and his wife Janet. It was the family home of entomologist Dr Doug Waterhouse CMG AO (19162000). Eryldene was designed by William Hardy Wilson, Australia's leading advocate of the Old Colonial Georgian Revival movement, with major input from Prof. Waterhouse. It is a single storey cement rendered brick bungalow of conventional domestic construction with a hipped roof of terracotta roof shingle. Its symmetrical facade faces the formal garden frontage from which a central sandstone path and steps lead to an entrance verandah beneath the roof line. The verandah terminates at a loggia at each end and is broken up into five bays with wooden Doric columns placed at regular intervals, four of which are paired to mark the entrance at the centre. At the rear, the building wraps around a central courtyard framed by columns and open to the garden. Internally, a central hall separates two main rooms on either side. A hall at the rear echoes in plan the verandah and opens to the courtyard and the remaining rooms. The interior spaces are modest in scale and proportion. They are enriched by detailed elements inspired by colonial architecture researched by Wilson, including windows, doors and fanlights, architraves, skirtings, picture rails and mantelpieces.
