Enriched in local history, built originally as a fruit pickers’ cottage, completed circa 1911, “Sylvie” was originally surrounded by orchards in a lush region that was the ‘fruit bowl of Sydney’ and the birthplace of the Granny Smith Apple.
Offered to market for the first time in nearly 70-years, this beloved family home has been renovated, restored and enlarged by the current owners, all the while retaining its original ‘Fruit Pickers’ Cottage’ heritage, character and façade. In fact, it is the only one of the original four ‘fruit pickers’ cottages’ where you can recognise that original heritage.
