Iconic Firs Estate Cottage in Roseville reopens

Published on 25 September 2024

The Council owned heritage property in Clanville Street Roseville will reopen as a restaurant from Wednesday 25 September.

Ku-ring-gai Council conducted a tender process earlier this year for a new tenancy, following remodelling and repairs to the heritage building.

Firs Estate Cottage will reopen as a restaurant under a commercial lease from Council from Wednesday 25 September, trading as Ms Right.

Ms Right will offer an eclectic dining experience ranging from lunches, afternoon high teas (Wednesdays to Sundays), an onsite café and an Asian fusion restaurant available for bookings between Thursdays and Saturdays.

Firs Estate Cottage is located on land which was once part of a 400-acre property granted to Daniel Dering Mathew in 1819, reputed to be the first trained architect to reach Australia.

In 1918 the Council of the Shire of Ku-ring-gai purchased part of the estate to form a large part of what is now known as Roseville Park. Ku-ring-gai Council has owned the Firs Estate Cottage continuously since this period.

The recent upgrade complements the building’s heritage with the décor and furniture reflecting the new dining experience.
