′The Keep′ - Renowned Heritage Beauty
positioned on the edge of the picturesque village of burrawang and set across eighteen breathtaking acres, heritage icon ′the keep′ is a rare and remarkable estate. originally built circa 1870, the main residence comprises five generous bedrooms and five bathrooms (including ensuites), complemented by a newly renovated, self-contained one-bedroom garden cottage.
a series of formal and informal living, dining, reading and sitting rooms create a home of exceptional scale and warmth, where romance and heritage elegance combine. the open-plan kitchen/dining/living room provides family ambience and opens through french doors to sweeping lawns and a tranquil central lake with jetty, framing idyllic rural views in every direction.
the renowned michael bligh–designed gardens are a standout feature, showcasing century-old deciduous trees, a classic rose walk, and a woodland garden layered with bulbs that transform into a springtime spectacle. the garden is fully irrigated.
equestrian facilities are extensive and thoughtfully designed, including a six-horse barn (stables), six horse yards, a six-horse sand-based walker with variable speed, a 700-metre canter track, sand-based warm-up track and a dedicated equine swimming pool. speciality horse fencing has been recently installed.
previously operated as a boutique bed and breakfast and with endless potential, the home′s soaring 12-foot ceilings and multiple fireplaces deliver an authentic and luxurious highlands′ experience. just a stroll to the burrawang village hotel and only fifteen minutes from bowral′s excellent schools, shopping and medical facilities, ′the keep′ represents a special opportunity to secure a landmark southern highlands estate of distinction.
