Overview
Truro House is a distinguished Victorian homestead dating back to circa 1880, nestled within approximately 4,978 square meters of established, private grounds in the Southern Highlands' Balmoral Village. This residence encapsulates a unique narrative of the area’s history, having served varied roles from guesthouse to post office, and more recently as a private family home. The property's grand presence is emphasized by its wrought-iron gates and a sweeping circular driveway that meanders through mature cold-climate gardens, culminating in a residence of timeless character and scale.
The house showcases exquisite traditional design featuring sandstock brick construction with Flemish bond brickwork, wide timber verandas, and ornate cast-iron lacework. Inside, the home is marked by soaring pressed-metal ceilings, substantial internal walls, and six marble fireplaces that combine heritage charm with functional warmth. The layout offers up to five generously proportioned bedrooms providing versatile living options, alongside two well-appointed bathrooms that maintain period-style fittings including a claw-foot bath.
Living spaces are thoughtfully arranged to balance formal elegance and comfortable family living. Highlighted is an impressive great room with an atrium-style roof that floods the interior with natural light, complemented by a country kitchen equipped with marble benchtops, quality appliances, and ample cabinetry. A spectacular glass conservatory connects the indoor spaces seamlessly with the outdoor gardens, enhancing both daily enjoyment and entertaining possibilities.
The expansive grounds present enchanting features such as clipped hedging, ornamental fountains, and mature specimen trees, creating a serene and private setting. Additional amenities enrich the estate with a summer house, greenhouse, original coach house, and a modern in-ground swimming pool. Practical outbuildings include a separate double garage with attic storage and a cellar, supporting both lifestyle and storage needs.
Positioned approximately five minutes from the Hume Highway, ten minutes from Mittagong, and roughly an hour from Sydney, this property affords a rare opportunity to acquire a significant Southern Highlands residence that blends historical significance with contemporary country living comforts.
