A rare opportunity to secure one of the Southern Highlands' most distinguished period homes, 26 Elizabeth Street, Moss Vale presents an authentic Californian Bungalow of exceptional integrity - lovingly preserved and beautifully liveable.
Built in 1927 and constructed in double brick with 11-foot ceilings, this beautiful home exudes a warmth and grandeur that is immediately apparent. Period details abound throughout: intricate plaster ceiling roses, original hardwood floorboards, leadlight windows, and heritage fittings including original light switches, door hardware, and window furniture. Every bedroom retains its original fireplace with mantelpiece intact, lending warmth and character to each space.
The floorplan flows generously across three bedrooms, a large formal lounge and family room with adjacent dining area, and a substantial northwest-facing enclosed veranda - a sun-drenched retreat that functions as a superb additional living space. The master bedroom features a walk-through robe. The kitchen and bathroom have both been sensitively renovated within the last five years, offering modern comfort without compromising the home's period soul. A separate laundry with additional WC completes the interior. With radiator heating throughout, ducted climate control, and double brick walls the home is as comfortable as it is charming.
Beyond the home itself, the property extends to approximately three-quarters of an acre, retaining much of its original character. Established exotic trees - persimmon, hawthorn and more - frame the extensively terraced gardens, while a sweeping established hedge provides beautiful definition. A three-car garage, original glasshouse, and matching double brick boundary fence round out an extraordinary offering. Views stretching west toward the ranges and Mount Gibraltar to the North complete the horizon.
Whether you are seeking a magnificent period family home or a landholding with genuine development upside, this is a property of uncommon significance.
