Dating from the 1930's, this century-old home is a faithful re-creation of an English Tudor-style countryside manor and it holds a special place in Bowral's history, having been constructed by the renowned local builders, Alf Stephens & Son.
"Teffont" is a captivating journey into the past, displaying steeply pitched gable roofs, decorative half-timbering and a scene stealing hexagonal chimney which climbs endlessly skywards. Inside the old-world charm continues with rich wooden accents, double-hung sash windows, towering ceilings, original hardwood floors and the piece de resistance – a magnificent open fireplace that will warm the coldest of winter nights.
Tradition is put to one side in the recently renovated kitchen which will satisfy the most discerning chef. Then through to a sun-filled dining and casual living area where much family life will be spent. Both rooms open to the enchanting "Greens" which are framed by glorious ficus-covered walls.
Onward to an attached self-contained dwelling with a loft which will accommodate guests, family or Airbnb visitors. The grounds are a delightful blend of open spaces and garden rooms, filled with exotic trees & plants.
Located conveniently to key facilities such as schools, the golf course, hospital and Bowral township, this ageless home is ready to welcome new owners to write the next chapter in its life
