100 Theresa View Road, Theresa Park NSW 2570

Do you have a dream of life in a country retreat where you can work and create, away from the city, yet only 15 minutes from Camden and close to everything if you need it? Do you want a rural escape from the weekday drudgery of city life maybe? Are you yearning for the fresh air of a tree change? This absolutely gorgeous bush property cottage, nestled on over 2 hectares (5 acres) and originally part of Theresa Park Farm, is waiting for the perfect buyer. And it is truly magnificent. Every inch of the building has been carefully handcrafted with meticulous detail. The external walls are PGH sandstock double brick, and the internal sandstone is hand-cut from a local quarry. North Coast Blue Gum timber rafters adorn the cathedral ceilings, and the front door boasts an original stained-glass artwork by Sydney Artist, David Saunders. In the beautiful living area and the huge bedroom, the live-edge shelves are handcrafted from Tasmanian Myrtle. The Merbau windows and French doors on every side are handmade, with cedar internal doors and internal timber walls featuring sawn Oregon slabs. Exquisite workmanship is evident in every loving detail, which was carefully and thoughtfully owner-designed, handcrafted, and built over three years between 1981 and 1983. The covered verandah surrounds the cottage on all sides, with French doors opening up the inside to the natural seclusion of the bush. There is exquisite attention to the smallest detail, such as the handle on the screen door, crafted from beach driftwood. The main open-plan living area, incorporating the family living/ dining/ kitchen, is heated by a glorious wood-burner fire and delivers the “wow” factor in spades. The kitchen features terracotta tiled benchtops, a Miele double-ring electric hob, a Miele double-ring gas cooktop, and a convection/microwave oven. Everything is unique and handcrafted, and the warmth of the wood and stone is complemented by the stunning slate floor tiles throughout. The huge bedroom/ retreat incorporates a large built-in wardrobe and features French doors opening onto the verandah on two sides. The bathroom enjoys equally stunning features: a magnificent clawfoot cast iron enamel bath with a shower overhead, an enamel cast iron wash basin, an antique brass shower, tap fittings and French doors that allow you to enjoy the secluded nature that surrounds you while bathing. The separate WC is equally charming. The storage rooms and laundry under the verandah with its posts of locally milled ironbark—and the carport—complete this picturesque cottage with its stunning views. This chalet at the heart of the property is only the beginning, however, because close by, on the lovely grounds, is a huge 35sqm studio/workshop building, a nearly 21sqm garage, more storage buildings and undercover work and storage spaces—room for your creativity, your gardening, ride-on mower and all you could need. Imagine your very own artist retreat/studio/workshop set in this idyllic location! This is truly the dream you have waited for. You could be self-sufficient in your rural hideaway with your vegetables, orchard and chickens in the coop while still enjoying all the advantages of modern living, such as NBN. The location is certainly rural and secluded, but the nearest shops are only a few kilometres away in Cobbitty and The Oaks, and it’s only a mere 15 minutes from Camden, with its shopping, eateries, medical facilities and other conveniences. Even the bus service is only a kilometre away! And it’s half an hour from Campbelltown and an hour from Parramatta and the CBD. Let’s face it, the location is ideal! This is the perfect retreat for the artist, artisan or those seeking the peace and refreshment of the countryside. It’s the perfect balance between country and city living. And you won’t be the only one to think so. Such an idyllic, unique property rarely comes onto the market, and when it does, it’s never there for long.
