Overview

Yabba Yabba – A Majestic Piece of Blackheath's History

Steeped in history and elegance, Yabba Yabba is a remarkable heritage mansion constructed in 1888, set within one acre of formally divided, century-old gardens. A superbly restored example of 19th-century opulence, this grand estate seamlessly blends timeless charm with modern luxuries. Licensed to host up to three weddings per month, it offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Blackheath's history. The heart of the home features a chandelier-lit ballroom, where French doors open to an expansive entertaining deck, creating a stunning setting for gatherings. A formal lounge room, complete with an open fireplace, provides a warm and inviting space, while the full commercial-style stainless kitchen ensures exceptional functionality. The home's impressive 15-foot timber-lined ceilings, decorative cornices, and architraves enhance its grandeur. Accommodation includes 11 luxurious suites, each with its own marble bathroom, offering refined comfort for guests. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with numerous entertaining areas and extensive hardwood decking. A newly resurfaced, full-size championship tennis court adds to the lifestyle appeal, while the property's orchard-featuring a magnificent 100-year-old walnut tree alongside apple, plum, nectarine, cherry, and pomegranate trees-provides a picturesque backdrop. One of Blackheath's earliest original guesthouses, Yabba Yabba is a truly unique offering that must be experienced firsthand. With its rich history, exquisite restoration, and exceptional features, this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity awaits its next custodian.
