Property Details for 3203 Old Hume Hwy, Berrima
Last Listing description (June 2026)
Just five minutes from the historic township of Berrima, you'll find 'Gowan Brae', one of the Southern Highlands' true residential jewels, a rare 20-acre estate with more than 300 metres of private Wingecarribee River frontage. Berrima's charming cafes and restaurants are just down the hill, and Bowral is only a ten-minute drive away.
'Gowan Brae' speaks to a lifestyle that can only be dreamt of - a five-bedroom sanctuary with interiors designed by Alexandra McKenzie Springett and Thomas Hamel, whose signature warmth and restraint invite relaxation and garden and landscape in.
It is the ultimate entertainer and retreat ~ quietly removed yet not remote ~ offering numerous indoor and outdoor places to gather and dine on its riverside verandas, in the charming boathouse or on delightful hidden places along bush tracks or elevated on sandstone outcrops.
Wander the grounds and you'll discover:
* A north-south tennis court with a charming pavilion a place for long matches and even longer afternoons
* An elegant boat house, secluded firepits, and multiple alfresco terraces
* Stonework and tiered gardens that echo the natural rise and fall of the land
* Walking tracks through the native forest, leading to a natural waterfall cascading from Cockatoo Hill into the river below
Here, the days begin and end with the sun rising or setting on the river ~ a landscape that lives and breathes with ancient bushland, wombats, owls and platypus sightings, and the birdsong of over 100 species of Australian birdlife who call "Gowan Brae" home.
This large classic home overlooking a gentle bend in the river is not simply a property. It's a living canvas, a riverside reverie, and an invitation to reconnect to nature, to enjoy with family and friends, and to something altogether timeless.
