Reminiscent of a southern plantation home you will fall in love with this historic circa 1890s Canadian-built, shingle-clad stunner set amongst some of Burradoo's most charming homes on a picturesque half acre with a commanding corner position. Long admired and originally constructed in the 19th century to serve the Bowral and Moss Vale Polo Club, Clubbe Cottage enjoys two street frontages with white entry gates through to the tranquil and extensive garden of cool climate deciduous trees and shrubs, manicured hedges and stepping stones.
Now sympathetically brought into the 21st century whilst retaining many of the original exquisite features typical of its bygone era to present an extremely comfortable five bedroom, three bathroom home currently incorporating a successful short term holiday rental business.
Perfectly level, just a short stroll to the Burradoo bike track and close to well-regarded schools this character-filled home with a documented history dating back to 1890 and oozing with charm and panache nestles perfectly into its leafy surroundings to offer unmatched street presence whilst providing privacy and beauty.
Fourteen-foot ceilings, tall brick chimneys, timber floorboards and open, marble and brick fireplaces whilst north-facing French doors and stain glass window features are complimented by the broad, sun-filled, wisteria draped, wrap-around verandah which spills from the gorgeous eat-in country kitchen – perfect for lazy Sunday lunches. Conservatory-style windows adorn the western bedrooms and are sheltered with white plantation shutters whilst three other bedrooms flow out to the verandah providing private entrances for each of the beautiful guestrooms.
The lush garden is dotted with stone paths and pretty shady pockets for a garden bench and the white pebble driveways entering from both frontages lead to the enchanting original barn-style three car garage which could easily be converted to further guest accommodation or a fabulous studio (STCA).
