Set on a lush, gently sloping block measuring around a third of an acre, 3 Chapman Street presents a beautiful 1960s family home just up the road from Moss Vale Golf Club.
The charming two-storey home features four bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus a separate powder room. Timber panel and ceramic tile construction create a storybook atmosphere, further enhanced by mature country gardens and established lawns.
Natalie Rice from Ray White Bowral describes the home as a particularly special example of classic American Cape Cod style.
“My favourite aspects of this property are its old-world charm and sense of privacy. From the moment you arrive, the residence has a wonderful sense of warmth and individuality,” she says.
“Thoughtful renovations have preserved its character while adding all the comforts we expect in a modern home.”
Inside feels relaxed and welcoming, with two spacious living areas and plenty of room to grow. The lounge features a slow-combustion fireplace and floor-to-ceiling custom cabinetry that any good bibliophile would swoon over.
Beyond it lies the sunroom extension, which is about two years old.
“This is a wonderful space to gather with loved ones throughout the seasons. Large double-glazed windows overlook the back patio and sweeping lawns, capturing plenty of natural light,” Natalie says.
“The renovated kitchen serves as the heart of the home. It’s well-equipped with the avid home chef in mind and flows naturally into the sunny dining room.”
All four bedrooms feature built-in storage and scenic garden views. The downstairs bedroom enjoys lush wool carpets and a designer bathroom complete with Rendition tiles. The remaining three are found upstairs, sharing a recently renovated family bathroom and separate powder room.
Further features include ducted gas heating and electric cooling, heated floors in both bathrooms, and a 17-panel on-roof solar system that generates around 20 kilowatts a day.
There’s also a large double garage with enough space for a workshop, home office or mezzanine storage – subject to council approval.
The grounds are fully fenced with a comprehensive watering system, handy garden and wood sheds, and sensor lights.
Moss Vale is a vibrant country town just under two hours from Sydney and Canberra. Despite being so well connected, Moss Vale still has that village feel, and locals know each other well.
Popular nearby coffee shops and eateries include Polly’s Pies, The Merchant and Butter & Beans. Wine fans need only pop up to indulge in Mount Ashby Estate’s cool-climate vineyard, cellar door and French-inspired café.
“This home presents a rare opportunity to secure a distinctive piece of Moss Vale heritage,” Natalie says.
“The current owners have loved living in this neighbourhood. It’s peaceful and family-friendly, with the golf course at the end of the street, a playground and dog park nearby, and the town centre within easy walking distance.
“The property feels equally suited to everyday family life, high-end entertainment or private relaxation within easy reach of town. It would suit a buyer looking for something a bit different, with plenty of old-world character and all the modern comforts of home.”
