Approached via a long tree lined driveway opening out into the most private and stunningly exquisite settings, sits this elegant Southern Highlands type property quietly standing in its own grounds of some 5 arable acres; a mix of beautiful established gardens and expansive park-like grounds, positioned in a very tranquil lakeside setting.
This beautiful home is characterized by sandstone flagged verandahs leading down to the poolside setting; character-filled rooms with large windows showcasing the views out over the grounds and wonderful features such as full working fires; pretty window seats, little alcoves and pretty dorma-windows upstairs.
Formerly operating as a very exclusive Bed and Breakfast; Willandra House offers all the comforts and luxurious surrounds one would expect from such a premier address.
The home comprises:
Four sumptuous bedrooms; all of double bed-size; some with window seats and pretty alcoves including the large Master Suite complete with luxury en-suite and walk-in-robe.
Lovely country kitchen with granite bench-tops; gas cook-top and oven, large pantry plus central island work bench.
Family meals room with slide doors to the outdoors and cosy full working fire
Elegant spacious combined formal lounge room and dining room with cedar windows showcasing views out over the gardens.

This is a beautiful country home resonating character, warmth and sumptuous living throughout.
Outdoors:
The home is positioned in a very peaceful location with lovely little walkways leading through to little pockets of established gardens surrounding the home. Adjacent to the home there is also a large under-cover double car-port. Another pathway leads down to the large shed; again full of character; formerly used for horses, incorporating 3 horse stables which can still easily be re-instated as such; currently used for storage and for car collections etc (could easily house 8 vehicles). Useful for a handyman; boating enthusiast or vintage car collector or again for horses as the stables lead out to a fully enclosed grassy paddock.
The grounds are beautifully maintained park-like grounds with the central feature being the expansive lake/dam which attracts a seemingly endless array of birdlife; a very tranquil and private location for this home.
Other features include the sparkling solar-heated salt-water pool with sandstone surrounds and lovely pool-side setting of the al-fresco dining area.
