7 Apple Street, Berrima NSW 2577

The literal definition of a hidden gem, "Gingenbullen" is tucked away nicely in what feels like an enchanted forest that just happens to have its own private living quarters.

Double automatic gates reveal a long gravel driveway leading past superbly manicured hedges, down towards the back garden with huge pines and a secret open-air gazebo.

The wrap-around verandah with lush greenery is reminiscent of a typical country homestead, echoed inside with timber floorboards and open plan kitchen to dining and living areas, complete with breakfast bar and walk-in pantry.

Ample-sized bedrooms, the Master complete with a huge walk-in robe and underfloor heating, plus the large timber outdoor deck add to the list of fabulous features in this charming home.

Extensive gardens towards the back of the property are perfect for enjoying the peace and quiet, or playing hide and seek with the kids. With trees to climb and plenty of space for the kids to run around, the big kids (AKA the parents) will love the huge double garage with ridiculous amounts of storage and even a workbench for dad.

You'll feel totally removed from the rest of the world, even though you're within walking distance to beautiful Berrima - life in the Southern Highlands in a nutshell.
