"Carnatressy"
1 Burrawang Station Road, Burrawang
built around 1860 and probably Burrawang's oldest house
The ideal home for anyone wanting a 'tree change'.
A weatherboard exterior, unique bargeboards, traditional bedrooms, interior and original period fittings. You'll also relish its established garden and hedges, creating privacy and beautiful outdoor living areas. All things considered, it is a perfect example of the time-honoured Australian country homestead.
Located in the picturesque village of Burrawang, 'Carnatressy' sits on 5 acres, with a combination of European gardens and an orchard with apples, pears, plums, citrus, kiwi fruit just to mention a few. There is abundant wildlife and one of the Southern Highland's few remaining stands of the 'Yarrawa Brush' complete with magical tracks and clearings. It also has a cleared paddock perfect for a horse or pet cow.
'Carnatressy' offers many traditional features including 10 foot ceilings, a large efficient slow combustion fire place, stain glass windows, cedar venetians, corrugated iron roof and an extensive enclosed rear veranda.
The front entrance is under a bull-nosed veranda leading to a wide and welcoming hallway. To the left the lounge room leads to an open planned dining area with a modern country- style, light filled kitchen with gas cook top and oven, featuring town as well as tank water. The kitchen offers a large working area with great bench space, complete with a walk-in pantry. To the right of the hallway is the master bedroom which has a large ensuite, complete with spa bath, as well as disability fixtures, a cosy 'private nook' and reverse cycle air-conditioning. A study (which is network cabled to upstairs and downstairs rooms), a laundry, bathroom, family room and the original kitchen complete with its fuel stove (no longer working) are also downstairs.
Upstairs you will find two generous bedrooms with dormer windows, ample storage space and a period bathroom. The rural views of the property and out to Burrawang are wonderful up here!
A separate studio/garage provides a secluded work area or extra accommodation.
Carnatressy is an alluring two-storey home with 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms , laundry, lounge, rumpus room, studio, three remote control, lock-up garages and downstairs accessibility.
Just a short walk into Burrawang, a 20 min drive to Bowral or Moss Vale and yet still in the country with all its peace and beauty.
With all these features we think you'll have no choice but to agree it's the ideal property to make you escape from the city, raise your family, or just retreat into retirement!
