Mawarra Manor, heritage listed and built in 1932, is set on 3 acres and includes 4 exquisite bedrooms. The garden - originally known as "The Grove" - is recognised as the most famous surviving example by renowned garden designer Edna Walling.
Whilst both house and garden have undergone extensive restoration and modernisation their historic significance has always remained at the forefront of thinking.
The manor incorporates all traditional formal and informal rooms that one would expect in a home of this era. Extensive wood panelling, wall to wall carpets, gas central heating, evaporative cooling and tasteful lighting provide a luxurious ambience. The upper level comprises an entry hall, large bow-shaped formal lounge with open fire place, dining room, enormous enclosed balcony area overlooking the central staircase and garden, guest bedroom, country kitchen with Miele appliances including 2 dishwashers, built-in refrigerator and built-in coffee machine, electric oven, gas hob, microwave and separate gas AGA oven and hotplates. The lounge is surrounded by full-length windows providing vistas of the heritage listed grounds. The wood panelled dining room has a display cabinet and wood fire heater.
