This substantial, and ever so exotic, retreat home, offers an escape from the hurly burly of city and suburban living without missing out on the convenience of living in close proximity to the vibrant down town precinct of Bowral.
Designed by its original 'artist' owner as a "weekend getaway" this home is anything but ordinary. Filled with the myriad sound of the surrounding bird life and the native bushland and accessed via a private driveway, this home is secluded and tranquil.
Large timber floorboards set the scene along with the soaring vaulted ceilings over the 'great' living & dining room that features a characterful fireplace. The kitchen is a welcoming area with masses of room for that 'gathering around' table (Featuring a large stainless range).
There are two bedrooms on the ground level, one being the master, with a lovely walk in dressing room & robe and French doors to the gorgeous verandah. Adjacent is a smart main bathroom complete with in floor heating and heated towel rail.
There is an upper level bedroom space with a W/C & basin. This bedroom is accessed via an antique spiral staircase that was originally in the Queen Victoria Building in Sydney.
The deep verandah that wraps itself around this home has such a solid feel. The French doors that open from the 'Great' room consist of double doors, additional cavity sliding doors and operational shutters, creating a perfect buffer for the seasons that we experience here in the Southern Highlands, from chilly nights to warm summer days.
The lower level of the home has masses of storage and workshop space and includes the laundry and a single lock up garage. There is plenty of scope to add to this unique home.
A circular drive; open parking for two other vehicles.
A separate free standing garage or storage shed.
The block is large and overlooks the gentle bush land of "The Gib" with its lovely walking trails.
