Description

A stylish home in town? A beautiful country pied-à-terre? Professional rooms? Commercial space with flair? Elegant office space? A mixture of these? All are possible – zoned B2 Local Centre.

As described in its 1922 auction campaign: “The Position is one of the best in the town and should commend itself to buyers desirous of acquiring a permanent or week-end home.” Fast forward almost 100 years and the 1922 commendation still stands! Located in Bowral’s Heritage Conservation Area, with ample space for sympathetic development, and with the flexibility of B2 zoning – this sundrenched property lends itself to a myriad of uses!

Of significant scale - both inside and out, and a floor plan which boasts enormous flexibility, the house has been meticulously renovated yet retains scope for further enhancement and interpretation. Located in the heart of Old Bowral in elegant Bendooley Street, you’ll hear distant church bells chime on Sunday mornings, birdsong from the garden, schoolyard chatter at lunch time and perhaps the crack of the willow from Bradman Oval - a most connected position with superb exposure.

A separate suite downstairs has its own entrance and bathroom adding to the flexibility offered by Deancourt. Ideal as a charming residence of beauty and substance, boutique accommodation, commercial or business pursuits, or a combination of these! Shopping, cafés, restaurants and galleries are a stone’s throw away. Enjoy urban pleasures and the country life - be part of the fabric of Old Bowral here and miss nothing!
