All the serenity of Mt Wilson awaits you in this property, away from the cares of the world yet only 25 minutes from Blackheath. As soon as you park the car, breathe out a sigh and breathe in the purest of air. Through the gate and follow the path to a magical getaway, set in an expansive private garden with a studio/guest bedroom and bathroom room beneath.
The house is a clean-lined, mid-century brick with architectural features: a covered entrance portico, copper gutters and a cantilevered veranda. It is a simple and serene space, where the deep green of garden permeates all the interiors with a peaceful ambience. Over 50 years of garden nurture has seen dozens of different camellia varieties flourish in the deep basalt soil, as well as cherries, crab apples and maples. Hosts of daffodils delight in Spring, and birds are drawn year round to the flowering native plantings on the lower reaches of the garden.
A long-held treasure, it’s now time for this very special property to fulfil someone else’s dream of a country garden and cottage escape.
