THE LANDSCAPE AND LEGACY OF 'ROCKFIELD PARK'

Poised gracefully above Berry and Kangaroo Valley, 'Rockfield Park' is a shining beacon in the revered Shoalhaven region. Stretching across 172 pristine acres, this estate showcases charismatic views from Gerringong to Jervis Bay, with Seven Mile Beach painting the perfect backdrop. Steeped in history, it proudly claims its status as the inaugural settlement on Berry Mountain from the 1860s, underscoring its enduring significance.

In 1992, the visionary artist and business magnate Lee Hamilton was captivated by 'Rockfield Park', choosing it as her haven. Notably, she was the first woman to secure a seat on the Sydney Stock Exchange, and it was this very estate that nourished her creative passions and kept her business acumen sharp. Now, her daughter Naomi, a talented photographer, continues this legacy, driving the sale of this treasured family haven.

At the heart of the estate stands a masterpiece of design. The main residence exudes timeless luxury, meticulously crafted from sparrow-pecked sandstone, western red cedar, and charcoal stone. Inside, four lavish bedrooms and three bathrooms radiate warmth. Grandeur is evident in every detail - from the cathedral windows and imposing fireplaces to the rich timber interiors. Every room captures nature's brilliance with its oversized windows, ensuring a seamless blend of inside and out.

Beyond the majestic main homestead, 'Rockfield Park' unfurls further treasures. An additional residence and a whimsical tiny home lie within its sprawling grounds, each echoing a dedication to creativity and comfort. These spaces, surrounded by nature's canvas of rolling paddocks, temperate forests, and boundless horizons, nurtured Lee's artistic pursuits.

Wandering through the established grounds, ornamental and deciduous trees stand tall, encapsulating a sense of peace and seclusion. Fields of lush green lawn frame a stone-wall ringed dam featuring a small island perch connected by a timber arch bridge. Delving deeper, one discovers over 80 acres of arable land, home to Dorper sheep. Previously, this farm has been a trusted meat provider for local eateries, supported by an on-site butchery.

Adding to its charm, the estate's proximity to Berry and Kangaroo Valley promises both tranquility and connectivity. Ultimately, 'Rockfield Park' presents an unparalleled offering for the discerning buyer, standing as one of the region's crown jewels.
