Berrima (New South Wales)
Hidden behind a long, all-weather country drive and opening to more than 100 acres of postcard-perfect Highlands countryside, The Grange, 581 Greenhills Road, Berrima is the kind of rural estate people imagine but rarely find. It has scale, it has water, it has accommodation for a crowd, and it has the equestrian and events infrastructure already in place. At the heart of the property sits The Lodge – a substantial residence created for hosting. A series of luxury guest suites, all air conditioned, enjoy sweeping rural and lake vistas, while the dramatic reception and great rooms give you the volume and flexibility to entertain, retreat, run a business retreat, or welcome extended family. A commercial caterer's kitchen (currently not in use) with cool room, storeroom and wash-up area means future events, weekends with friends or boutique accommodation are all realistic options. Wide verandahs and a sheltered courtyard with open fireplace let you enjoy the gardens in every season. Complementing the main home is The Granary, a beautifully converted two-storey barn with rustic elegance and modern comforts – ideal for guests, multi-generational living or manager's quarters. High ceilings, fireplaces, new kitchen, barn doors front and back and elevated views over the estate make it a wonderful second dwelling. Outside, the property really sings. A spectacular private lake – one of the largest privately held in the district – becomes the visual centrepiece. Around it: established house paddocks, specimen trees, orchard, berries, vegie patch, wisteria walk and glorious roses. For horse lovers there's a proper equestrian centre with stables, full-size 60m x 20m arena, post-and-rail and electrified paddocks, cattle yard and excellent water security (multiple dams, bores and substantial tank storage). A 25m x 50m lawn gives you an obvious location for marquee weddings or branded events. Zoned Ru2, with Starlink connected, solar, Da approval and quality rural infrastructure already in place, this is more than a lifestyle acreage – it's a capable, versatile Highlands holding that can be private, income-producing, equestrian, events-based or all four. Moments to historic Berrima and within easy reach of Bowral, The Grange is a rare chance to secure a destination estate in one of NSW's most coveted rural postcodes.
