Some properties capture your attention. The truly special ones capture your heart. Rose & Barn is one of those rare places that gives you an immediate feeling, a sense of warmth, curiosity and belonging from the moment you arrive. Hidden beyond its gates and surrounded by rolling green pastures beneath Cambewarra Mountain, it is a property we have admired for years and one we feel genuinely honoured to represent.
Originally established as Rosehill Farm in 1851, Rose & Barn brings together three independent dwellings across approximately one acre of established gardens, each with its own story, character and sense of privacy.
The Farmhouse is the principal residence, offering four bedrooms, multiple living spaces and a beautifully appointed country kitchen with butler's pantry. Its moody salon is particularly remarkable, a rich and unexpected visual feast, while the library fireplace and mountain-view balcony provide quieter places to retreat.
Rose Cottage is the historical heart of the property. Built in 1851 and recognised as a heritage-listed colonial vertical timber slab cottage, it feels like stepping back in time. Intimate, authentic and beautifully secluded, it has a distinctly cosy, nest-like quality that makes you feel immediately at home.
The thoughtfully converted Barn Cabin provides another independent space, while the separate studio, complete with electricity, plumbing and its distinctive yellow doors, presents endless possibilities for creative work, wellness, hobbies or working from home.
Outside, the gardens are immaculate yet relaxed, with numerous places to pause, entertain or simply breathe. The covered dining pavilion, pizza oven and adjoining firepit create a particularly special setting for long lunches, quiet afternoons and evenings shared with family and friends. From here, the outlook stretches across green pastures towards the mountain, changing beautifully as the sun sets and the stars arrive.
The configuration offers extraordinary flexibility for private living, multi-generational families, guest accommodation or continued operation as an established boutique accommodation business. Multiple access points and dedicated parking allow each dwelling to function independently without compromising the property's sense of connection.
Peaceful and private, yet within easy reach of Berry, Kangaroo Valley, Bomaderry, Nowra and the South Coast's beaches, cafés and restaurants, Rose & Barn offers a rare balance of country seclusion and everyday convenience.
There are properties we visit and appreciate. Then there are those we find difficult to leave.
Rose & Barn is one of them. A soulful, beautifully considered property, ready for its next custodian to continue a story more than 175 years in the making.
