Burradoo 17-19 Holly Road
Parkfield
A rare 2.5 acre estate in the most exclusive enclave of beautiful Burradoo
'Parkfield' offers the discerning buyer timeless grace, expansive accommodation and - with its stables, endless garden rooms and space for cultivation - the chance to own 'a little farm in town'.
Materials for the stunning home, which has been recently featured in Australian Country Style magazine, have been sourced with meticulous care: enter through locally smithed handmade steel double doors that throw light through the gracious entrance hall. Recycled wide timber floorboards, hand-cut heritage sandstone, and a stained leadlight arch from an iconic Sydney building provide unique and special features. Garden views are endless from the vast conservatory and the grand sitting and dining rooms offer elegant entertaining areas. The country-style kitchen features solid Tasmanian oak cabinetry and stone benchtops with a gas-fired working AGA and Falcon electric oven
The master bedroom wing is spacious: a home office, dual walk-in robes and a large and glamorous ensuite. French doors provide access to a sunny central courtyard. The guest room has its own ensuite and the children's wing features four further bedrooms and a bathroom and is cleverly sited for quiet separation. All bedrooms have high quality new wool carpet and throughout the home, enjoy French linen curtains and delightful features such as oversized designer pendant lanterns from The Society Inc.
The stables complex is currently used as a ceramics studio. A picture-perfect coach house could be used as a studio or workshop and above it is a two-bedroom self-contained apartment that would bring significant rental income as a permanent home or Airbnb. It has its own separate, private entrance. Adjacent to the coach house is an indoor swimming pool complex, recently fitted with new heating and pump infrastructure.
The home is the epitome of romance with delightful eccentricities and has been crafted for comfort. It is well insulated with 30cm solid brick walls and the foundations are raised brick pillar and post construction. Hydronic radiators provide perfect heat, but it is also airconditioned or light an open fire for true romance.
The garden is filled with fruiting trees: plum, cherry, chestnut, citrus. The sweeping curved driveway is lined with beautiful magnolias, rhododendron, copper beech and flowering crab apple. Hundreds of established roses and a wisteria walk provide seasonal colour and romance. The rear of the property backs onto an 8-acre nature reserve that is being gifted to the community. Filled with birdlife, species such as yellow-tailed black cockatoos, lorikeets and galahs are frequent visitors.
'Parkfield' is just a two-minute drive to Bowral, the culinary and cultural hub of the stunning Southern Highlands, or to Burradoo train station for Sydney commuters. Children can walk or bike ride along country lanes to an excellent co-ed private school just nearby. This is a lifestyle property with plenty of space for weekend visitors. It is the ultimate country home with access to all the amenities of town living.
