Bordering the pristine bushland of the Charles Darwin Reserve, this remarkable Japanese-inspired property is a rare fusion of history, architecture, and tranquil Blue Mountains living, reimagined for modern flexibility and income potential.
Originally built in 1910 as a grand private residence, and today, it stands as a thoughtfully revitalised sanctuary, where heritage character meets refined, minimalist design.
Set on an expansive 3,705 sqm parcel with direct reserve access, the property unfolds as a private retreat framed by landscaped gardens, peaceful outdoor areas, and sweeping natural vistas. The main part of the residence, generous in scale at approximately 325 sqm-forms the heart of the home, complemented by three distinctive, Japanese-inspired accommodation areas: the Origami Apartment, the Suenaga Suite, and the enchanting Haiku Hut.
Designed with versatility in mind, the property offers a rare adaptability to suit a range of lifestyles and ventures. Currently configured as a boutique accommodation offering, with further scope to enhance returns or reconfigure as a substantial private residence, multi-generational haven, or creative retreat (STCA).
Across the property, there are seven bedrooms, multiple living areas, and four kitchen spaces which provide flexible living arrangements, that effortlessly shift between private and shared spaces. Warm, light-filled interiors are enhanced by hydronic radiator heating in the main residence, gas central heating in the Suenaga suit, and split system air conditioning in the Origami apartment, while extensive upgrades, including updated plumbing, rewiring, and a near-new roof-ensure peace of mind.
Sustainability and functionality are seamlessly integrated, with 26 solar panels, three-phase power, and double glazing along the western elevation. Additional outbuildings, including a character-filled former laundry studio, workshops, and multiple sheds, further enrich the property's utility.
