Overview

'Arcadia' A Grand Katoomba Original

Arcadia enjoys a sunny setting in one of Katoomba's most desirable locations, overlooking bush reserve and only moments from the dramatic escarpment views along Cliff Drive. Dating from the early 1900s, this gracious residence occupies a 980sqm corner block with established gardens and a relaxed mountains atmosphere. Inside, a wide central hallway draws you through to the generous kitchen, dining and living space. Timber floors, high ceilings and expansive windows give the rooms an airy, welcoming feel. French doors connect the living area with the garden, and the north-facing sunroom is an inviting spot to enjoy the sunshine. Accommodation comprises four bedrooms, including a spacious main with walk-in robe and ensuite, another bedroom with an ensuite, and a main bathroom. Gas central heating and a gas log fire keep the home comfortable during the colder mountains months. Mature rhododendrons, azaleas and Japanese maples bring seasonal interest to the gardens. For outdoor entertaining, there's a pergola draped in wisteria and grapevine, together with a barbecue area and outdoor fireplace. A separate studio incorporating a bar provides an additional versatile space. The property also includes a detached garage, laundry and storage facilities, an extensive solar system with Tesla battery storage, and an alarm system. Just 30 metres from the escarpment views, approximately 1km from Katoomba town centre and around 2km from Echo Point, Arcadia is wonderfully placed to enjoy the surrounding attractions and everyday conveniences. Combining sunshine, space and traditional mountains appeal, this is an inviting residence in a particularly appealing Katoomba position.
