Leura House | Highland Cottage with Indoor Fireplace - Modern Country Life in Leura

3 Bedroom House in Leura

Highland Cottage is only 700 metres away from Leura Mall at a quiet side of the street. This original 1920 beauty is recently renovated with modern amenities. Sipping a glass of wine in front of the fireplace or a cup of tea in the nostalgic sun-room, you can hold an imaginative dialogue with the miners who built this cottage while Leura was surrounded by bush a century ago. Come and experience a unique modern country life at the most vibrant historical town of Leura in Highland Cottage.
The space
Highland Cottage is ideal for friends and families to experience the authentic Blue Mountain country lifestyle with modern comfort and convenience. We are only 700 metres away from Leura Mall and Leura train station.
Highland Cottage is surrounded by greens. You can find maple trees, lemon trees and even strawberries in the front, back and the side. With its classical layout, you will enter the house through a spacious and bright sun-room. It’s perfect to sip a cup of coffee or tea in the morning or enjoy a glass of wine in the evening while gazing the sunrise or sunset.
All of our three bedrooms are elegantly decorated with luxurious sheets, down duvets, French flax pillow cases, electric blankets and treasure objects.
The configuration of our rooms:
Bedroom One: 1 x Queen Bed, master bed room, window views to the sun-room and front garden.
Bedroom Two: 1 x Queen Bed, window view to the rear garden.
Bedroom Three: 1 Single Bed, kid’s room
2 Working fireplace at living room and Kitchen
We have a cosy and modern lounge where the main entertainment and social area is located. The centre of the lounge is the original fireplace. Surrounding the fireplace, there are digital TV, coffee table and a large sofa.
The central section of the house is a very spacious kitchen and dining area. You will find another original fireplace in this area. It has an old-school cooktop one can still boil hot water on top of it. This area can easily fit 6 people for dinner. It is very communal and perfect to enjoy a family meal or a romantic dinner after a full-day activities in the mountains.
The entire house is decorated with notable artworks from Melbourne based artist Cate Maddie. She is well known for natural still objects with a modern perspective.
Last but not the least, we haven’t forget your furry friends. Our pets absolutely love our house and gardens. I am sure yours will too. Our backyard is a very pet friendly area with lush vegetation and fenced boundaries. Please make sure you will bring beddings and bowls for your pets. We would ask you not to encourage your pets to climb up to our expensive furnitures and beds. Like our human friends, our pets deserve their own space and privacy. Hence there will be a $50 pet fee per stay for each pet. We only welcome maximal 2 pets per stay.
During autumn, the garden is lit up with beautiful maple leaves in golden colour. I am sure this is a great photo opportunity for instagrammers. We would appreciate your full respect to this historical property and the peaceful surroundings. Hence please remove your shoes and allow your feet to feel the natural timber floor. And please do not bring a noisy party to the neighborhood.
Winter is the most popular season in the mountains. Many people love indoor fireplace and firewood. We have prepared reasonable amount of firewood for you to enjoy during the winter months from June to August.
