Inside the sprawling Australian homes which feature in Toni Collette’s new Netflix thriller Pieces of Her
Netflix‘s brand-new drama Pieces of Her premiered on March 4.
And while the female-led series stars a host of Australian actors including Toni Collette and Bella Heathcote, it also boasts a string of jaw-dropping Aussie properties as filming locations.
The show, based on the 2018 novel by Karin Slaughter, is about a young woman named Andrea (Heathcote) who is caught up in a mass shooting at a diner while at lunch with her mother Laura (Collette).

The show was supposed to be filmed in British Columbia, Canada, last year, but the Covid-19 pandemic saw the shoot delayed and production moved to Australia.
Laura and Andrea’s seaside abode in the series can actually be found on the Central Coast on Macmasters Beach, reports Domain.
The three-bedroom, two-storey home, which last sold in 2016 for $1.7million, was built in 1927 by Dr John MacMaster, who named it Fort William as a nod to his family’s ancestral home in Scotland.

The show also delves into the life of the billionaire Queller family, who reside in a jaw-dropping mansion which bears a resemblance to a castle.
The home is actually named The Swifts, a heritage-listed late-Victorian Gothic Revival mansion located in the suburb of Darling Point, Sydney.
The home is arguably one of the most famous in Australia, and features 60 large rooms after being built in the 1870s by a brewer.
