Mountain Charm and Timeless Beauty: Your Retreat in the Sky

Prepare to be captivated by the breathtaking vistas of Oberon, Porters Pass, and the Kanimbla Valley from this enchanting mountain home, a vantage point for some of the most stunning sunsets in the region. This picturesque abode, originally constructed in 1906, retains the timeless allure of the past while boasting modern comforts and amenities. A true gem of the mountains, it was thoughtfully refurbished in 2011 to enhance its period features and ensure your stay is one of both nostalgia and convenience.

Period Meets Modern: This mountain home seamlessly blends the charm of its era with modern comforts. The refurbished kitchen, equipped with contemporary appliances, stands as a testament to this harmonious merger.

Serene Gardens: Delight in the front and back gardens adorned with mature trees, providing a peaceful oasis. The backyard boasts the presence of a lovely apple tree, adding to the bucolic charm of the property.

Year-Round Comfort: In the winter months, stay warm and cozy by the slow combustion wood fireplace. An instantaneous gas hot water system ensures your comfort, and in the summer, ceiling fans keep the air fresh and pleasant.

Three Spacious Bedrooms: The house offers three generously sized bedrooms, each with its own unique character. French doors lead from one bedroom to the verandah, while two others feature expansive lead-light windows, allowing for an abundance of natural light.

Great view
Kitchen very well stocked. Bedrooms clean, lovely white sheets, mattress just right degree of firm/soft and plenty of pillows. Living room cosy. Heating good. Upstairs family room with excellent view. All bedrooms downstairs but if disabled, wouldn’t be able to enjoy the view. Negatives are bathrooms are separate from bedrooms and at the rear of the building.
