The 'Blair Athol' mansion stands proudly atop the city of Bathurst, enjoying magnificent 3,751sqm grounds, as well as the adjoining Lot being 1,334sqm of private gardens, the landmark Victorian Mansion is amongst Australia's most treasured.
The property's history commenced in 1845, when the first title deeds of the land were issued, and the Blair Athol mansion was designed by legendary architect James Hine and it's ornate construction completed in 1892 as a manor house for solicitor and Bathurst Council Mayor John McPhillamy Esquire and his family.
The Italianate mansion encompasses stately reception & dining rooms, a conservatory, a garden pavilion & magnificent grounds. Five gracefully decorated bedroom suites boast leafy views through each window, dressed with the finest curtains, soaring high ceilings, cozy gas fireplaces and offer stunning garden views at every angle.
Influenced by some of the world's most treasured Victorian buildings, a seven year back-to-bare-bones restoration has returned 'Blair Athol' to her original 1892 glory and she is a truly grand 19th Century mansion equipped for elegant 21st Century living. With 21st Century automation, lighting & luxuries including an elevator, electronic blinds, security systems & extensive underfloor heating, all operated throughout the home via an easy mobile app.
Blair Athol is inextricably linked to Bathurst's rich history and since its restoration, it has a new heart. A heart that will live on for future generations to enjoy. For another 130 years and beyond.
