Gurrawarra- c1883
Gurrawarra or "meeting of the four winds" sits among a tightly held pocket of English Summer Houses, located on the famous Waverley Ridge. Renown for its temperate climate and commanding views Waverley Ridge was "the" place to retreat for the aristocracy and decision makers which made Adelaide the place it is today.
Located on the Eastern side of the Ridge, Gurrawarra commands breathtaking views of what was affectionately coined by its settlers as "Adelaide's Playground" - The Adelaide Hills.
Elegant in style and grand in proportions, the Mansion offers traditional formal family accommodation blended with modern casual living areas.
What we love about this property:
- The Mansion, the epitome of strength and beauty, effortlessly commands attention by retaining authentic period features that one comes to expect with a masterpiece of the era.
- Like most iconic historic homes in the Adelaide Hills Gurrawarra is crafted of Mount Lofty Stone.
- Built at the direction of A.T.Magarey (Co Founder of the Royal Geographical Society Of South Australia)
- At 700m above sea level and with an ever changing environment, Gurrawarra is one of the few locations
