Invergowrie 74 Bundanoon Road Exeter for sale by James Hall of Savills is arguably one of the finest landholdings in the Southern Highlands, with an opportunity to increase the property size to 33ha.
Taking its cues from the great manor houses of Europe, ‘Invergowrie’ is one of the most famous residences in New south Wales. The home was built in 1936 by prominent Australian industrialist Sir Cecil Harold Hoskins, who was later honoured with a knighthood for his efforts in establishing the iron and steel industry in Australia.
The surrounding estate and manicured gardens were designed by the celebrated landscape architect Paul Sorenson, who is widely known and esteemed for a body of work that includes some of the most iconic turn-of-the-century botanical gardens and landscape designs in the region and the world.
