Beautifully renovated historic Cobar Cottage to be auctioned by Highland

A historic Burraneer home – which has been part of the bayside landscape since 1902 and one of the area’s finest privately owned estates – is set to be auctioned by Highland.

Highland agents Mitchell Wynn and Laura McKay have been appointed to auction 7 Bermuda Place Burraneer, also known as Cobar Cottage, offering prospective buyers a once in a lifetime opportunity to secure a historic landmark property of this kind.

Originally built in 1898 in Cobar New South Wales and transported to Burraneer by horse and cart, Cobar Cottage represents a rare opportunity to own an iconic piece of Burraneer history.

“We are very excited to be bringing such a historical Sydney residence to the market. Cobar Cottage is an architectural marvel, and one which is unlikely to ever be repeated,” said Mr. Wynn.

“This estate serves as a gracious reminder of the past while offering every modern comfort – only meters from the glimmering Gunnamatta Bay. It is a house that wraps itself around you in pleasure and tranquillity and is ideal for a buyer who appreciates its history and uniqueness.”

Reminiscent of a grand country manor the 6-bedroom, 4-bathroom estate rests over 2,250sqm of enchanting gardens and resort-inspired grounds complete with a swimming pool, gazebo, fire-pit, retreat, and library, with boundless space for entertaining on an intimate and superb scale.

The property is a highly sought-after opportunity, due to its rich interior tapestry including pressed metal ceilings, stained glass windows, original doors, and period fireplaces.

The interiors are a blend of original architecture integrated seamlessly alongside modern living amenities such as decorated bedrooms with built-ins and a gourmet country-style kitchen including a chef-grade cooktop and appliances.

The estate has been restored, revived, and transformed by its current owners with the utmost respect for its architectural pedigree.

“The current owners have done a full renovation on the entire house alongside extensive landscaping and external renovations all whilst preserving its rich original details,” said Mr. Wynn.

“They have also done a spectacular extension on the property to incorporate a new, luxurious and exclusive master retreat wing.”

Highland property agents Mitchell Wynn and Laura McKay will auction Cobar Cottage, unless sold prior, on Wednesday the 7th of December at 5pm.
