Description: Taking its cues from the great manor houses of Europe, "Invergowrie" is the most prestigious - and arguably the most famous - residence in the Southern Highlands. The home was built in 1936 by prominent Australian industrialist Sir Cecil Harold Hoskins, who was later honoured with a knighthood for his efforts in establishing the iron and steel industry in Australia. The surrounding estate and manicured gardens were designed by the celebrated landscape architect Paul Sorenson, who is widely known and esteemed for a body of work that includes some of the most iconic turn-of-the-century botanical gardens and landscape designs still flourishing in the wider region and the world. Dramatic and opulent, this Tudor Revival residence has been recently reborn and is now presented with layer upon layer of exquisite fixtures and finishes, carefully curated to the highest standards by the award-winning Greg Natale Designs.
