138 Shipley Road Blackheath, NSW 2785

Step into a private world of beauty and tranquillity, nestled on over 5 acres of magnificent parklike grounds atop the highly sought-after Shipley Plateau. On arrival, the dry stone wall and automatic gated entry, signal that you have arrived somewhere truly special. The sweeping 140m mature cherry blossom tree-lined entry is just the beginning. "Applegrove" is an exclusive property that presents a rare fusion of refined comfort and natural grandeur - a timeless retreat where sweeping lawns, curated gardens, and towering trees frame a contemporary, light-filled architect designed residence. Designed for both quiet contemplation and joyful gatherings, the home flows effortlessly from expansive living spaces to a sprawling covered deck that overlooks your own private arboretum. Inside, every detail speaks of craftsmanship and care - from newly polished Blackbutt floors to underfloor heated bathrooms and a chef's kitchen that inspires with premium appliances and elegant finishes. Step outside and meander through a wonderland of mature elms, oaks, maples and spruce; wander along to the dam blooming with iris and water lilies; or relax under the filtered light that protects the fire pit seating area. This is not just a home - it is an estate of rare beauty and soul, awaiting those who seek peace, space and the grounding luxury of nature. The iconic "Applegrove" is locally revered as one of the area's most prestigious residences and is a home one would be proud to warmly welcome guests to.
