9 Rectory Park Way, Kangaroo Valley NSW 2577

Offered to the market for the first time in the history of Kangaroo Valley, The Old Rectory is an extraordinary piece of the Valley's story - and a rare opportunity to become its next custodian.

Set on approximately 2.6 acres (1.06Ha) in an elevated position on the Hampden Bridge side of the village, this magnificent historic residence has been a treasured part of the Kangaroo Valley community since its completion in 1882.

Designed by renowned architect John Horbury Hunt, constructed by master stonemason John Tanner and built from locally quarried sandstone, The Old Rectory is an outstanding example of Australia's colonial architecture. Its sweeping gabled roofs, substantial sandstone walls, soaring chimneys, north-facing verandah and handcrafted cedar joinery create a presence that is both grand and unmistakably Kangaroo Valley.

Owned by the Anglican Church since its completion, the land was originally gifted by pioneering local Alick Osborne, with the residence first occupied by Reverend G. H. Muzy. For generations, The Old Rectory was not simply a minister's residence, but a welcoming home at the heart of the community. Today, its historical significance is recognised through its listing with both the National Trust and Heritage Register.
