Auburn Circa 1909. A 1940 Valuation book confirms the name. The land was purchased by JOHN MATTHEW HANLON OF HABERFIELD, INDENT MERCHANT FROM HABERFIELD PROPRIETARY LIMITED IN 1909. The property was developed and likely the home was constructed in that year. The house seems to have been named while the HANLONS lived there. We can also see that the land transferred from the HANLONS TO MARY ELIZABETH HORTON in 1920 who maintain ownership until 1949 when LESLIE EVERED NICHOLS A HABERFIELD MANUFACTURER purchased the property. A rare opportunity to secure a charming Federation home on a substantial parcel of land in one of Haberfield's most desirable locations.
