Brunyarra

Brunyarra, now known as Del Monte, is a historic house in the Sydney, Australia suburb of Strathfield.

[1] Built in 1886, Brunyarra was the home of John Spencer Brunton (1861–1937),[2] a member of an Australian flour milling family.

On her death in 1950, Bailey bequeathed the property to the Dominican Sisters of Santa Sabina, who the following year opened a new junior school in the house.

The street front has wide verandahs and balconies to the south-eastern corner decorated with moulded balustrades, columns and bases and ornate capitals.

[3] Arched windows in recessed surrounds and a six-panel entrance door flanked by sidelights and topped by a fanlight add to the detailing of the verandahs and balconies.
