There are homes that simply occupy a place, and others that become part of its story. Truro House belongs firmly to the latter. Dating to circa 1880 and set amid approximately 4,978sqm of established grounds, this remarkable Victorian homestead has stood as an enduring part of Balmoral Village for well over a century.
Beyond its wrought-iron gates, a sweeping circular driveway winds through established cold-climate gardens to reveal a residence of extraordinary presence. Having served throughout its life as a guesthouse, school, post office and private residence, Truro House carries a history that extends well beyond its walls.
Beautifully preserved and thoughtfully evolved over generations, Truro retains the craftsmanship and character of its Victorian origins while offering the scale, comfort and versatility required for contemporary country living.
Inside, elegant formal rooms and generous accommodation are complemented by an impressive great room crowned by an atrium-style roof, drawing natural light deep into the interior. A refined country kitchen sits alongside a spectacular glass conservatory, creating an inviting connection between the home and its surrounding gardens.
Outside, sweeping lawns, clipped hedging, ornamental fountains and mature specimen trees create an enchanting private setting. The grounds continue to reveal themselves with a summer house, greenhouse and original coach house, while an in-ground swimming pool brings a decidedly modern pleasure to this historic estate.
Carefully restored, sensitively updated and beautifully maintained, it presents a rare opportunity to become the next custodian of a significant Southern Highlands residence, approximately ten minutes from the Hume Highway, twenty minutes from Mittagong and around an hour from Sydney.
