5 Wilshire Street, Berrima, NSW, 2577, Australia

Built in 1878, this stunning sandstone property with soaring 11ft ceilings has been thoughtfully renovated to ensure the new owners enjoy this truly charming home in supreme warmth and style in the heart of Berrima.

Street appeal is second to none, perfect Georgian symmetry, wide verandah and set behind established cottage garden. The wide central hallway welcomes you to four large rooms, each with original fireplaces, ducted heating, picture rails, high skirtings and tall deep sash windows, all hallmarks of its era. Currently configured as 2 bedrooms, lounge room, and dining room. Past owners have used it as three bedrooms and utilised the smaller dining room off the kitchen.

The kitchen renovation has blended bespoke quality appliances and fittings to provide a highly functional yet visual masterpiece. With bench seating for guests to admire your culinary skills they too will appreciate the beautiful wood burning Esse oven and cooktop, 900mm wide Falcon gas oven and cooktop, floor to ceiling cabinetry, stone benchtops and deep porcelain sink.

The property has two bathrooms, the main bathroom features open fireplace, shower and freestanding bath with views through French doors to your private garden. The second bathroom is combined with the laundry.

The separate garage has been converted to a gorgeous large bedroom and home office. Thus providing additional accommodation for guests, grown up children, and/or bed and breakfast income. However, it can easily convert to a garage should new owners so desire.

Berrima is a warm and welcoming community, supported by a strong primary school. It is recognised as one of the most beautiful Georgian period villages in Australia and is home to many restaurants, art galleries and wineries. It is also just 10 minutes to Bowral, Mittagong and Moss Vale, and 5 minutes off the freeway for an easy Sydney commute.

The property is an easy level walk to Berrima’s cafes and shops, Josh's Cafe, Eschalot hatted restaurant, Michael Reid Gallery, The Vault House, the general store and post office and only steps to the banks of the beautiful Wingecarribee River.
