PLUM BLOSSOM COTTAGE

Plum Blossom Cottage is a delightful weatherboard mountain home nestled in Katoomba, Blue Mountains, seamlessly blending modern, retro, and vintage styles. This spacious five-bedroom, two-bathroom residence boasts Art Deco elements and antique furnishings, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. The newly renovated bathrooms feature contemporary fixtures, including a deep bath, harmoniously complementing the home's classic charm. The country-style eat-in kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering, making it ideal for families and groups. The open-plan living and dining area, surrounded by stained glass windows, offers beautiful garden views and a bright, airy atmosphere. The property is equipped with heating and cooling systems, ensuring year-round comfort.

The northwest sunny back deck, complete with a BBQ, overlooks plum blossom trees and a meandering blooming cottage garden, providing the perfect setting for relaxation and outdoor dining. The well-maintained garden serves as a peaceful retreat, enhancing the home's tranquil environment. Conveniently located, the cottage is within walking distance to Katoomba Village centre and the iconic Three Sisters, granting easy access to local attractions. Public transport options are readily available, with the Blue Mountains Explorer Bus—a hop-on, hop-off service—passing directly by the property, allowing guests to explore the area at their leisure.

Plum Blossom Cottage is pet-friendly; however, please note that the rear gate is not secure, and there is a gap beneath it. Guests have praised the property for its excellent location, comfort, and unique character, making it an ideal retreat that combines timeless charm with modern amenities, all within reach of Katoomba's natural beauty and attractions.
