An Architectural masterpiece The Lakeside Barn is an architectural masterpiece that was built in 1997 from the old wharf buildings at Darling Harbour. It has been featured on the cover of "Southern Highlands Homes II” - showcasing the best in architecture and rural living in the Southern Highlands. The moment you walk into The Lakeside Barn, you are greeted with head to toe windows that overlook the iris and lily pond lake. The Lakeside Barn is the perfect romantic escape, only 90 minutes from Canberra & Sydney! The wood was sourced from the old ironbark warehouse timbers from the now Darling Harbour and through the help of local craftsmen, they created the wonderful framework from enormous 14x14 inch beams some up to 7 metre's long, and huge purpose-built rafters, hiding all fitting internally for aesthetics. The owners had the rusticated weatherboards milled to match the old cottage at the time and had the huge barn hinges made by a local blacksmith. The owners had some of the wharf timbers milled for the fabulous wide floorboards and simply tongue-oiled them. The red front door is an original door from the old cottage and you can see where the farm dogs had once scratched to get inside probably for warmth many years ago. The rustic timber lining boards in the kitchen were repurposed from old used boards from the original cottage. The huge bank of north-facing windows was sourced from an old school in Sydney and they have used the remainder of these in their main homestead as well. The Barn is an adults-only property & we cannot accept bookings for babies, children or pets. Our team will respond as soon as possible!
