Antique collector lists Berry home with glass conservatory and mountain views

Offered for sale for the very first time is this luxurious “olde worlde” home at 81 Kangaroo Valley Road, Berry.

Situated on over two hectares of lush green mountainside, the home is hidden among park-like gardens and Kentia palm plantings.

Even the drive up the tree-lined bitumen road is a majestic one, and there’s a striking red front door to welcome you home each day.

Inside, herringbone timber floors flow through the single-storey home, which features enormous open-plan living spaces with natural light flooding in from every direction. There is even a glass conservatory/sun room overlooking the established gardens.

“The unique thing about this property is that it was once part of a much larger property over 60 years old,” agent Carrie Bond of South Coast Prestige Properties said.

“The owners threw many parties and the wife was very creative. She was an avid antique collector of many quirky items and European pine pieces. Her cottage was filled with lots of eclectic pieces.

“From the minute you walk in you can just imagine the stories and the gatherings that the four walls have seen over the years.”

Of the five bedrooms, the huge main suite is the most spectacular. It includes an en suite with spa bath, a spacious dressing room, and green garden vistas, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind.

There are numerous outdoor entertaining and sitting areas among the towering trees to be enjoyed, including a tranquil meditation garden when a recharge is required.

A tennis court, pool, spa and sauna are also on the property, providing home owners more activities than a holiday resort.

Berry is only 2.5 hours’ drive from Canberra. Green mountainside and blue coastlines make up this quaint village in the Shoalhaven region of NSW. It’s so picturesque that many Canberra couples opt to have their weddings in the area.
