47 Regent Street, Maitland

Simply majestic is the only way to describe this historic masterpiece in one of Maitland's finest streets.

With a truly captivating ambience, the home is a rare gem where you can feel an abundance of calm and an aura brimming with love.

Built by prominent retail merchants, the Cohen family, in 1892 as a wedding present for their daughter, "Azuma" reflects the epitome of style, elegance and opulence of a bygone era.

If the walls could talk they'd tell tales of grand dinner parties, high tea on Sunday afternoons and of the laughter that filled the rooms from the lucky few to have called Azuma home.
