About this property

Casa Antica, 200m walk to Bowral Township, family friendly and strictly NO PETS!

I look forward to welcoming you to my property. A spacious lovely old world charm brick home, built in 1927. It has soaring 10'ft decorative ceilings, log fireplace in living room, timber floorboards throughout, modern kitchen with new appliances, oven, cooktop, microwave and traditional tiled bathroom all within 200m walk to Bowral local cafes, fashion shops and more. Golf is just a short 5minute drive to bowral golf course.

Lovely charming victorian windows and lots of sunlight.
Comfy and cosy for families and groups in winter with the log fire in the living rooms - great for toasting marshmallows (all local Service stations supply bags of wood, kindling and fire starters).
* Please be assured that prior to every guest stay the home is professionally cleaned on entry and exit and all linen is laundered.

Tom Jones Weekend
We had a great weekend in Bowral. The house is great and spacious enough for a group of friends. Easy walk into town with coffee just down the road for the early risers. Thank you.

Property was comfortable for our group. It was in a great position in Bowral, Park the car and walk everywhere, very central. It is an old house and needs a little maintenance but comfortable enough for our two night stay.

Thank you Mike for your amazing review of our home. Yes it’s one of the very few left of its kind and we live with some of its character traits which are purely cosmetic. Delighted to read it was in a great position as its only 3 minutes walk to the town. I agree not having to worry about parking the car makes it stress-free. So good you had your comfort away from home. We look forward to you visiting us again soon. Be sure to let me know when you return. Thank you for being great guests.

We had a lovely stay, love old houses, it was clean and tidy… heating warmed the house well. Location is excellent, walked into town for dinner Only 3 rooms were made up as there were only 3 of us booked in. Could do with some updated pictures of lounge room, but still cozy- had no need to light the fireplace. Communication with Tanya was great, check in seamless… I would recommend any day.. we will be back.

Love Casa Antica, had a beautiful weekend there with some friends. Super cosy. Saturday lunch with a bottle of local wine in the sunshine on the back porch was divine. The bedding is beautiful and very comfortable. Easy walk into Bowral. Do be aware that there are cracks in several walls but it is a lovely old home and I think this is reflected in the excellent price. Great value, thanks for having us!

Thank you for your awesome review of our home. It is a character filled home with modern amenities neat clean and tidy. Yes we are often told the beds are super comfy and the shower is super hot and the heating warm and toasty which we believe are the most necessary items on stay. I am so glad that you got to experience it all. And yes there are some slight imperfections in minor surface lines to be expected of a house that age. So glad you had a wonderful weekend away and that you got to enjoy the house for what it really offers lots of charm. I look forward to you visiting again and so glad the price was right for you. We try our best to be competitive and offer a good deal for a lovely charming home that is a walk to town.

The period features are exceptional and rare with decorative 10'ft ceilings, timber floorboards throughout and large picture windows all within a double brick structure.

What makes this property unique

I adore old world charm, the spacious flowing floor plan and a cosy log fireplace - all within a stroll to town. PET friendly upon request at a fee t&c applies -secure Fencing throughout the property.
