The Hermitage is a historic house in the Sydney suburb of Vaucluse. It is listed on the Australian Register of the National Estate〔The Heritage of Australia, Macmillan Company, 1981, p.2/134〕as well as the State Heritage Register of New South Wales.〔(State Heritage Register )〕 ==History and description==
The main house was designed and built around 1870-1878 by Edward Mason Hunt, influenced by the design of Roslyndale, in Woollahra, New South Wales. It features a castellated tower, elaborately carved barge boards and a roof of multiple gables. The house was seriously damaged by a fire in 1936, and was restored by Emil Sodersten. It was bought by the Woolworths company in 1964 and used as a staff training centre,〔Walks in the Sydney Harbour National Park, Neil Paton, p.54〕 but later returned to its original role as a private home. This Gothic house overlooks Hermitage Reserve and has harbour views. The Hermitage incorporates a smaller house, which was built circa 1840 by Alexander Dick.〔Heritage of Australia, p.2/134; Sydney Architecture (Jahn), p.35〕
