On the market for the first time in over 20 years, 12 Berrima Drive in Berrima is a picture-perfect homestead that dreams are made of.
This charming two-story weatherboard cottage is nestled on five acres. It offers four bedrooms, two bathrooms, slow combustion wood fire, solar panels, an 80,000-litre water tank and exposed wooden beams throughout.
Raine and Horne real estate agent Rowena Bendror says the home has breathtaking countryside views.
“I think one of the best things about the home is the fantastic rural views you get just from looking out the window,” Rowena says.
“It’s a great little home for a tree change or country escape.”
Entering this charming home, you’re greeted by the stunning cathedral ceilings and exposed wooden beams – a recurring theme throughout the light-filled home.

A newly renovated kitchen flows onto a meals nook and sitting area that can be closed off with double doors from the lounge room which features a slow combustion fire.
The home’s wide wrap-around veranda can be accessed from the kitchen and lounge room, offering the perfect spot to relax and take in the rural views.
On the ground floor, you’ll find the master bedroom complete with a walk-in closet and separate ensuite. The remaining three bedrooms are all found upstairs.
Beyond the home are your five hectares, surrounded by nature with room to relax and plenty of space to add a shed or workshop (why not both?)
