Stunning Historic Property with Breathtaking Sunset Views

At an altitude of 762m and on approximately 2.81ha of land, "The Sallies" commands unrivalled views of rolling hills and some of the most spectacular sunsets in the district. This captivating property offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of history with a rich heritage dating back to 1861. Originally serving as a post office, telephone exchange, and general store, its primary use was as a family-run dairy business. The property encompasses three original buildings, including a hardwood cottage, a converted garage, and a brick dairy constructed in the early 1900s.

The original cottage has four light-filled bedrooms retaining the character of its era and a modern master suite with luxurious bathroom and spacious walk-in robe.
The modern extension seamlessly connects to the original farmhouse and includes an open plan entrance, living space, kitchen and dining area with architectural ceilings. Large glass doors opening to a covered verandah, the perfect spot to take in the breathtaking vistas.

A light-filled walk-way connects the farmhouse to the original garage- a beautifully transformed sanctuary with cosy slow-combustion fire and high raked ceilings.
A short stroll away, you'll discover the original dairy, which has been transformed into a charming self-contained space. It includes a bedroom, kitchenette, ensuite and a lounge area. Ideal for visiting guests or as an income opportunity.

Currently used as a short stays rental, "The Sallies" offers the opportunity for astute investors to walk in and operate an established income generator.
The modern yet rustic interiors of the home retain a farmhouse feel, afforded with creature comforts for today's living.

On approximately 6.9 acres (2.81Ha) with a 100m long spring, four paddocks with steel and hardwood fencing and plenty of space for hobbies. Summer nights call for entertaining around the outdoor pizza oven or taking a soak in the large concrete tub while witnessing the spectacular sunset.

Just 8 minutes to Burrawang village, 13 minutes to Moss Vale and less than 20 minutes to Bowral.

This unique property, steeped in history and offering contemporary comfort, presents a rare opportunity to own a slice of Avoca's heritage. With its elevated position and breathtaking views, "The Sallies" is an exceptional find in the Southern Highlands real estate market.
