The first ‘Our House’ event was held at Glenlea, 4 Mary St Glebe on Sunday 9 July. It was a great success with 50 members enjoying the view across Blackwattle Bay on a beautiful sunshine filled Sunday afternoon in the beautifully restored Glenlea. The lovely afternoon tea and ‘bubbles’ made it a very social event.
Members really appreciated being able to see the interior of the home ‘up close’, having access to the different and impressive vistas of Blackwattle Bay on offer from the vantage points of the garden and balconies.
We were also very pleased that some new members were able to join us at this event.
Special thanks to our generous hosts, Louis and Patty Patsalos, who opened their home and shared some stories on their renovation experience. Patty said
It was our pleasure hosting the Glebe Society and members and we were happy that we could lift some of the mystery surrounding the build and renovation of Glenlea.
Next ‘Our House’: 12 November 2017 (2.30-4pm) at another very special Glebe home. More details in the next Bulletin – bookings will be limited.

There is an article about Glenlea in our “Who Lived in Your Street?” section.
