Hedgerow an exclusive estate set in exotic gardens

You may have heard of Hedgerow. It has a long list of gushing five-star reviews on Stayz and that’s just for its two-bedroom cottage. The beautiful main house on this two-hectare garden estate at 75 Boundary Road, Berry is the private domain of the owner.

Interested buyers could continue to offer the delightful secondary cottage to paying guests or keep it for visiting friends and family who, with just a two-hour drive from Sydney, will come in droves. When Berry bypass is opened at the end of the year, the journey will be even quicker.

Selling agent Nick Dale of Belle Property Berry (0419 425 166) says Hedgerow will more than likely attract mature-aged buyers who plan to move to Berry in the next couple of years. While they’re putting those plans in place, they’ll use the house as a weekender and holiday home. They are the buyers who will most appreciate the separate guest cottage. It’s self-contained, pet-friendly and fenced and has access to the new saltwater swimming pool. It takes the pressure off playing host.

Another attraction to this property is its position in the exclusive enclave of Broughton Vale. Rural vistas stretch as far as the eye can as see but Hedgerow is only five minutes’ drive from Berry and it is approached by sealed road without the winding bends or steep hills common to many properties nearby. It’s a tightly-held pocket.

The six-year-old house has been oriented perfectly for the climate. Living rooms, one with a two-way wood-burning fireplace, flank the French Provincial Caesarstone kitchen. These rooms all face north and open to a covered verandah with a view over the large dam and west toward the escarpment. Sunsets from Hedgerow are spectacular.

The three large bedrooms including the main suite with his and hers walk-in wardrobes, and a large study (or fourth bedroom), are well spaced to allow for privacy. There is ample storage and internal access to the double garage.

Features include travertine flooring, high ceilings, sound system and a wine cellar. There are three water tanks and 10 solar panels.

The English owner has stamped her style throughout the gardens. “She has about every exotic plant suited to the climate,” says Dale. “They are stunning gardens.”

With a price guide of $2.6 million to $2.8 million, Hedgerow is set to make a price record for two-hectare properties in the area. Inspections are by appointment.
