Built only twenty years ago, but with a deep appreciation for traditional design, ‘Charlton House’ echoes the charm of the Highlands' finest 19th-century homes. Light-filled and built for family living, period details abound: plaster ceiling roses, antique leadlight windows imported from an English village hall, traditional tapware and lining boards.
While the home’s character is evident throughout, it also features a full suite of modern conveniences: ducted gas central heating, underfloor heating in wet areas, entertainment wiring, and a heated swimming pool set in Yorkstone paving.
The hand-painted timber kitchen is well-equipped with a double Ilve oven and walk-in pantry, and connects seamlessly with a casual sitting room, formal dining space, and two covered verandas via French doors.
Of the five generous bedrooms, the master suite includes two walk-in robes and a spacious ensuite with claw-foot bath. The fifth bedroom, a magnificent and sprawling private guest loft with ensuite and built-ins, offers flexibility for guests, teenagers, or as a separate living zone.
Living areas are equally spacious. Downstairs, a formal living room with an open fireplace and built-in library cabinetry adjoins a study. Upstairs, a large family room connects three of the bedrooms and provides excellent space for children or additional entertaining.
Outdoors, enjoy a full-size tennis court bordered by cherry laurel hedges. The three-car garage with barn-style electric doors offers direct internal access, and an additional two-bay guest parking area provides plenty of room for visitors.
All of this is set on nearly an acre of private, beautifully landscaped grounds, just a short walk to schools, boutiques, medical facilities and restaurants and in the heart of coveted Old Bowral.
Additional Features:
• Reverse cycle air conditioning in guest loft
