Das Graue Haus

There is a rarified quality of light that settles across the secluded offshoot valleys of the greater Kangaroo Valley – a landscape where each estate seems to claim its own outcrop and its own quiet horizon. Positioned against the slopes of a Wattamolla hillside and spanning more than 42 hectares, this classic country homestead captures that rare sense of privacy and stillness while offering a lifestyle of understated luxury.

A suspenseful arrival gives way to the home’s wide wraparound verandah, where generous sitting areas invite morning coffee or long evenings watching the sun slip behind the surrounding hills. Inside, timeless country details unfold through VJ-panelled walls and ceilings, polished timber floors and interiors designed for comfort as much as elegance.

At one end of the home, a grand open living and dining space is anchored by an impressive open fireplace and French doors opening westward to the landscape. At the opposite end, the main bedroom suite enjoys its own fireplace, French doors to the east and a lavish ensuite with a freestanding bath and a walk-in robe.

A beautifully appointed country kitchen forms the heart of everyday life, with a striking stone island, freestanding range cooker, walk-in pantry and separate scullery. Accommodation continues with three further bedrooms designed for both family living and weekend escapes. Two bedrooms are located on the upper level, alongside a third bathroom and a dedicated study space, creating a quiet retreat for guests or children.

Beyond the home, the estate stretches across paddocks, bushland, and a peaceful stretch of Ryder’s Creek, while a resort-style pool and sundeck offer a place to pause above the valley below. Though it feels worlds away, Berry’s historic village is just 20 minutes away, with the beaches of Gerroa and Gerringong within half an hour and the Southern Highlands’ townships of Bowral and Moss Vale around 45 minutes from the gate.
