Perched high on Mount Keira’s escarpment, with panoramic views stretching from the Illawarra coastline to the hinterland, 54-61 Mt Ousley Road, Mount Keira presents an extraordinary opportunity to craft one of the region’s most remarkable private estates.
Spanning 31 hectares in the tightly held Highland Park enclave, the property combines scale, privacy and natural beauty, just minutes from Wollongong’s beaches and less than an hour from Sydney.
Held by the same family since 1978, the land offers a rare blank canvas for a visionary buyer to shape a legacy property.
Its elevated position ensures uninterrupted vistas that can never be built out, while the mix of cleared areas, a boutique vineyard and flexible C2 and C3 zoning opens the door to a range of possibilities from a luxury home or guesthouse to a bed and breakfast or community retreat (subject to council approval).
Colliers International Residential’s Nathan Berlyn says the response so far reflects the scale of the opportunity the property presents.
“You can see this is a rare opportunity to create the finest estate on the South Coast with uninterrupted elevated views of the Illawarra coastline,” he says.
With a price guide of $8 million, interest has been strong among Sydney-based buyers drawn to the outlook and scale.
“The next owner has the opportunity to create one of the most premium estates in the Illawarra, thanks to its elevated outlook and scale,” Nathan says. “It’s truly a blank canvas for someone to craft something exceptional.”
The existing residence offers strong potential for renovation or use as accommodation while building your dream estate.
Occupying the upper corner of the estate and surrounded by generous levelled areas, it captures sweeping views.
“The current home is positioned on the top corner of the estate, allowing the finest views for entertaining,” Nathan says. “The large levelled area around the home allows for further scope for a pool, a guest house and ample parking for car enthusiasts.”
A new entry driveway is currently under construction.
Offering space, serenity and commanding coastal views in equal measure, this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to design a landmark property on one of the South Coast’s most prestigious landholdings.
