Solitary - A Private Garden Retreat with Megalong Valley Views

Hidden behind glorious spring gardens, meandering pathways and enchanting stone walls, this original character cottage offers a rare combination of privacy, charm and breathtaking views towards the Megalong Valley. Nestled amongst the treetops in one of Blackheath's sought-after locations, this much-loved timber home is rich in character, with beautiful period details thoughtfully complemented by comfortable modern living.

A separate garden studio offers an inspiring space for creative pursuits, working from home or simply escaping to somewhere quiet.
