Extended Description:
Luxury Blue Mountains Accommodation for one or two couples.
It was a case of Amoré at first sight when, as tourists, we stopped opposite the driveway transfixed by the sight of the cottage and the large Gothic-printed FOR SALE sign. An hour later we were being shown the property by an agent who certainly didn't have to sell us.
Sitting on the stone setting with the rustle of trees, the sound of birds reverberating through the Blue Mountains bush and glimpses of Nellie's Glen Cliff opposite, we knew this would be our new sanctuary.
Now, five years on, we have decided to share Amoré on weekends as we pursue other interests.
Comments from friends and acquaintances plus the number of coaches and passers-by who stop - captivated as we were - to look, prompted us to home share.
Amoré accommodates one to two couples in an atmosphere sure to relax even the most restless.
The Cottage
Built from Western Australian Sandstone - sawn on site, as was the limestone for all retaining walls - the builder was lavish in his use of timber, handmade terracotta tiles and copper in his interpretation of a European chalet blending into the mist and snow of the mountains.
Lounge
French doors compliment exposed sandstone walls, timber-lined cathedral ceiling and window in this cosy area. The gas log fire and comfortable lounge invite you to settle down and enjoy the entertainment available - TV, VCR and CD player plus Pianola and games for those times when you don't wish to venture outdoors.
Dining
Formal or informal - the choice is yours. Alabaster wall sconces create your desired atmosphere, while the French doors give access to the front courtyard and sandstone setting for alfresco dining.
Kitchen
Timber beams and sandstone bench-tops frame the fuel/electric stove. Fridge, microwave and brass sinks will make you feel at home as will the fully equipped cupboards - right down to recipe books. For informal cooking there is a 5-burner gas BBQ in the rear courtyard.
Master Bedroom
Upstairs through the mezzanine area, featuring a library, is a double bedroom with ensuite and French doors to a balcony overlooking the garden - ideal for that morning cuppa while watching the bird life.
Second Bedroom
Downstairs' double bedroom has French door access to the garden and use of the 'English bathroom' with hand-painted 'washdown closet' plus clawfoot bath for those long, luxurious soaks.
