Meander the stalls of antique markets, spoil your tastebuds with the delightful gourmet treats and boutique wines that the surrounding villages Bowral, Berrima and Mittagong have to offer…
The tranquil Attunga estate offers everything from a leafy landscape of space to a French provincial inspiration of style and personality. Just over one hours drive from Sydney’s CBD, the area is nostalgic for old-fashioned towns and beautiful manors framed by vibrant green vines.

Sydney Seidler. Here we have two of the most desirable words one can only dream of having read together in a sentence. The architectural brilliance of Harry Seidler relieves his talent once more in Sydney Seidler, one of his last creations. What more could you hope for in holiday house accommodation? This property honestly does encapsulate ‘the best of both worlds’ – it’s picturesque location and design prominence within the art realm had us wobbly-kneed, bags packed and the Pommery chilled within a heartbeat.

Sydney Seidler offers a spacious, outsized living area and bedrooms – its presence is nostalgic of a cathedral-like shape and design. Structured upon a split-floor level assemblage, the aesthetically boastful property has an expansive and airy living enclosure and three bedrooms. It’s fresh white walls offer a clean, contemporary atmosphere – one of which installs calm and serenity upon your arrival. This palette is juxtoposed among an infusion of contemporary Australian artworks.

Seidler’s contemporary staircase enchants a rising adventure to the upstairs living area and media enclosure, flowing onto the stunning and private master-bedroom. With an eye-feasting view over the Balmain waters, the master-bedroom is far from ‘average’, offering stunning features such as a walk-in-wardrobe and ensuite.

Downstairs one can entertain on the scenic balcony; it overlooks lush gardens, the neighbouring waters and your own secluded pool. Up the ante on indulgent, five-star accommodation and utilize the property’s private jetty – enter and disembark as you like!
