Oswestry, the restored 1887 Glebe mansion, is up for sale having last sold in 2004 at $3.55 million to the James family.
The five-bedroom Glebe Point Road property, featuring Federation Queen Anne ornamentation, stands on 1003 sq m.
It is said that the American influence of McKim, Mead and White is evident in Oswestry's flamboyant architecture.
The property had previously changed hands in 1997 when bought by medico Peter Tomlinson and his wife, Karen, from the mortgagees of the Morris family.
Oswestry has been listed through One Agency Christou Realty.
