Summary: This magnificent period home has been renovated and restored to provide the perfect experience of mountain life. The rooms and corridors are filled with antique furniture but modern comforts are close at hand: a stylish kitchen, fully ducted heating, even a sauna. Wander out to Gordon Falls to admire the view before returning to town for a quiet drink at The Alex, a classic mountain pub. There’s space for several cars and the home is a block from the train station: it couldn’t be more convenient.
The Space: This beautifully renovated family home offers a glimpse of tranquil life in Sydney’s leafy suburbs. With two queen bedrooms, each with private balconies, and two single bedrooms, it’s got room for everyone. Laundry facilities, storage and lots of on-street parking make life easy.
There are 17 steps inside the property. The stairway has a panel to prevent any falls, please be advised that any stairs can present a hazard for children or people with mobility impediments.

The Neighborhood: Spacious mid-century homes on quiet, leafy streets are the order of the day in Frenchs Forest, a well-heeled neighbourhood between the bush and the beaches 13 kilometres north of the Sydney CBD. The area has been voted one of the city's most liveable suburbs, probably thanks to its relaxed atmosphere, shopping options and safe streets.
Getting Around: We highly recommend using ride-sharing services.
Check out the TripGo app for transport timetables.
Public transport Buses to the city leave from Frenchs Forest Rd, a five-minute walk away, and take 45 minutes to arrive in the city.
Ride sharing Ride sharing apps are a safe and easy way to get around, especially later at night when public transport services are less frequent. Prices are about two-thirds that of taking a taxi, but may surge during bad weather or public events.
