Set in its own valley of largely undisturbed bushland and sheltered by surrounding sandstone cliffs, deep gullies and densely treed slopes, Halcyon occupies a stunning 54-hectare parcel that is like nothing else you've ever experienced. The residence itself is situated on a high point of a north facing slope, affording it views down to the dam and it's birdlife, the Wingecarribee valley and Conservation Corridor and across to the Blue Mountains.
Custom built in 1997 but having been extended and updated more recently, the home is designed to blend with the surrounding landscape and blur the lines between indoors and out. With energy efficiency also top of mind, the home's placement takes advantage of its northerly aspect with the low winter sun providing cosy warmth during the colder months, while cross-breezes and extended eaves cool the home in summer.
Whether as a permanent home or a weekend escape, there's no denying this is a tree-change experience in every sense, within 30 minutes of Bowral, Berrima and Mittagong!
