Through 300-year-old cast iron carriage gates, up a treelined driveway and tucked away in the most prestigious part of the Southern Highlands, sits the magnificent 'Chateau Blondel'. Named for 18th-century architect Jacques-Francoise Blondel, it rises from its elevated rural location like a visage from the French countryside. Within the walls of this almost 1000 square metre exquisite family residence built in 2000, every detail - from the dozens of imported chandeliers to the granite and marble flooring and opulent French-style kitchen, to the baroque dining room that holds a five-metre table - has been meticulously crafted for both warm family living and lavish entertaining at scale. Countless French doors provide stretching rural vistas over neighbouring vineyards; oversized bedrooms provide luxurious comfort. Just a five-minute drive to upmarket Bowral or Berrima, and on a delightful 14.5-acre estate for ultimate privacy, welcome to 'Chateau Blondel'- your escape to the French countryside within a 70 minute drive of Sydney Airport.
