SOLD PRIOR TO AUCTION - THE ULTIMATE MOUNTAIN ESCAPE

Having fully evolved from its humble beginnings, "Koo Burra" now stands in its full aesthetic glory as one of Blackheath's truly special mountain escapes. Positioned just moments from the village centre and train station, yet surrounded by the tranquillity of the Blue Mountains, this beautifully restored Edwardian cottage offers the perfect retreat from the pace of city living.

Bathed in natural light, the deep entrance verandah extends a warm welcome and overlooks manicured, low-maintenance gardens designed to burst into colour each spring. From the front to the rear of the property, the home reflects a thoughtful balance of form, function, and understated mid-century style.

Classic sash-window bedrooms frame the entry hallway, leading to a central living room anchored by a charming open fireplace. Beyond, the home opens into a beautifully integrated kitchen, dining, and second living area where minimalist styling, rich black floorboards, graceful high ceilings, and expansive windows create a calm and inviting atmosphere. Garden views feature throughout, while the layout celebrates both openness and privacy. A UK-crafted ESSE slow-combustion fireplace provides the ultimate mountain ambience, complemented by app-controlled heating for year-round comfort. The kitchen combines style and practicality with a Smeg six-burner gas oven, Miele dishwasher, and fireclay sink. Outdoor entertaining decks at both the front and rear invite relaxed gatherings in every season.

Adding further appeal is a detached architectural studio with sleeping loft, ideal for guests, creative pursuits, or remote work, alongside a Greenspan work shed with pitched roof and oak panelling. Solar panels, a 5kWh battery, and high-speed NBN ensure the home is as functional as it is beautiful. Whether sought as a soulful weekender or a permanent tree change, "Koo Burra" delivers a rare lifestyle opportunity in one of the Blue Mountains' most cherished locations.
