Overview

Watermark House is a distinguished circa 1930s Californian bungalow set amidst beautifully established gardens on a substantial 4489 sqm property across two titles. This residence invites those who appreciate timeless architectural character, offering distinctive original leadlight windows sourced from the historic Carrington Hotel and period detailing that enrich the home's heritage appeal.

Its generous accommodation includes three to four sizeable bedrooms and three bathrooms, providing ample space for families or those seeking a Blue Mountains retreat. The home's design emphasizes connection with nature, featuring an open-plan living, dining, and sunroom area that is bathed in natural light and overlooks serene garden vistas.

One of the standout features is the expansive outdoor entertaining deck, perfectly positioned to capture breathtaking views of the Grose Valley extending towards Mount Banks. This outdoor space enhances the lifestyle experience by creating an inviting setting for both relaxed mornings and social gatherings.

Adding further versatility is a separate downstairs area with two rooms, a bathroom, and additional storage. This space is ideal for a variety of uses including a teenager's retreat, home office, or creative studio, offering privacy from the main living quarters.

The property's beautifully maintained cottage gardens with mature Japanese maples, fruit trees, and an impressive Wollemi Pine contribute to a tranquil and picturesque environment, complemented by unique creek frontage that deepens the connection to the natural surroundings.

With practical sustainability elements such as solar-passive design, a 2.5kW solar system, and rainwater tanks, the home embraces comfortable and eco-conscious mountain living. Situated roughly one kilometre from Leura Village, residents enjoy convenient access to boutique shops, cafes, restaurants, and everyday amenities.

Watermark House presents a rare opportunity to secure a character-filled family home, holiday accommodation, or investment with development potential subject to council approval. The dual titles provide flexibility for future expansion or subdivision in this tightly held and sought-after Leura location.
