About this property
ONLY PROPERTY IN THE VILLAGE WITH A POOL AND PRIVATE RIVER FRONTAGE
Hampden House offers guests serene accommodation amongst beautiful established grounds overlooking the Valley escarpment with private access to the Kangaroo River.
Hampden House was chosen by the Australian Women's Weekly as the location for their winter fashion shoot. Boxstudios have used the property for music videos.
Good news - Wifi, Netflix, as well as ducted heating and cooling to ensure your stay is comfortable all year round, although it is always lovely to light the fire in the cooler months.
Built towards the end of the 1800s, Hampden House retains many of its original features including outbuildings, 3 sandstone fireplaces, century old hardwood flooring and cedar windows. It is set on acreage with frontage to the Kangaroo River and is a short stroll to the quaint heritage listed village of Kangaroo Valley. The house has wide verandas with extensive views of the surrounding valley escarpments. The property has been in the same family for 5 generations and the current host is the great grand-daughter of the original owner.
The main house has 4 bedrooms featuring many of the property’s original furnishings. The kitchen and separate living room offer stunning views of the property surrounds and feature the original chimneys, echoing the sandstone of the renowned Hampden Bridge.
Hampden House sits beyond a laurel hedge amongst fruit trees. Meander in the orchard or down to the waters edge and listen to the gently flowing river as you relax in the garden.
Make yourself at home, relax in front of the fire or on the veranda with a good book and take in the clean crisp country air of one of Australia’s most beautiful regions. Discover the tranquil world of Kangaroo Valley and enjoy this elegantly furnished house which is suitable for couples who enjoy their own company or for a small group of family or friends.
Hampden House is the perfect stay for guests wanting privacy close to town with a great variety of activities to choose from. The house features its own solar heated swimming, pool, sheridan sun dried linen, mountain bikes and idyllic picnic spots.
Hampden House could be your perfect for your wedding, it is suited for small intimate occasion 20-25 guests.
