About the building:
This iconic block of flats was born out of the interwar building boom, meeting the rising demand for modern, convenient rental accommodation in New Farm. With close proximity to public transport and the city, 'Casa del Rio' embodies the era's embrace of modernity. Many of these elegant flats were established on subdivided residential estates, reflecting the economic realities of the time.

As one of three distinctive 1930s blocks built on the 'Ravenswood' estate alongside 'Casa del Mar' and 'Ravenswood' 'Casa del Rio' boasts an architectural charm that remains unparalleled.
The three-storey brick building features striking curved balconies adorned with wrought iron balustrades, complementing the tiled window hoods over beautiful stained-glass windows. The intricate brick banding and brick quoins at the lower level give way to a roughcast render on the upper part of the building, creating a visually captivating facade. Together with the adjacent Casa del Mar, 'Casa del Rio' significantly enhances the aesthetic appeal of Moray Street.

Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of New Farm's rich architectural heritage. 'Casa del Rio' is not just a place to live, but a testament to the timeless elegance and modern convenience that define this sought-after neighborhood.
