The Aerie Bushland A frame Escape with Retro Charm

Tucked in peaceful bushland, this late-70s A‑frame escape is just minutes from Katoomba’s town centre, buzzing eateries, and iconic sights like the Three Sisters and Katoomba Falls. Inside, vintage furnishings and a crackling fireplace create a cosy space to rest. Cook in the well-equipped kitchen, then enjoy drinks on the balcony or spacious deck among the treetops. Outside, the leafy backyard features a fire pit and outdoor dining nook, while a dedicated home office makes remote days a breeze.
Discover this one-of-a-kind Bisley A‑frame retreat—a late-1970s gem with bushland views and nostalgic charm that embraces the natural beauty of Katoomba. The light-filled living area sets a welcoming tone, centred around a crackling wood fire and styled with a velvet green sofa, retro armchair, and tranquil outlooks.

The kitchen blends retro charm with modern convenience, offering a full suite of appliances including a gas stove, oven, microwave, and fridge. Start your day with an espresso or pour-over coffee, then grab a quick bite at the breakfast bar. Dine beneath bold artwork in the adjoining dining area, and afterwards, step onto the spacious deck to enjoy fresh mountain air and leafy surrounds.

Both queen-sized bedrooms blend comfort and character, styled with vintage furnishings and a restful atmosphere. The lofted primary bedroom embraces the A-frame’s distinctive design, featuring a velvet sofa and access to a private balcony, while the downstairs bedroom offers mid-century charm and leafy views. Two bathrooms ensure a comfortable stay, one with a shower-over-bath and in-home washer, the other with a walk-in rain shower.

The home office offers two quiet workspaces: a main desk setup with an ergonomic chair and banker’s lamp, and a study nook for focused writing. Between tasks, relax in the vintage armchair, stretch out on the daybed, or step onto the balcony with bar seating and treetop views.

Outside, a native garden awaits with hidden spots for dining, reading, or unwinding—whether you're enjoying alfresco meals in the sun or gathering around the fire pit at dusk. Year-round comfort is provided by a split-system air conditioner in the living area, plus portable heaters and fans throughout. On-site parking is available for two vehicles in the driveway. Free street parking is also available nearby.
During your stay, you and your group will have the entire cottage to yourselves. Please make yourselves at home!

Located on the peaceful Sixth Avenue, the home offers a serene base just minutes from Katoomba’s best attractions. It’s a five-minute drive to the town centre, where you’ll find a vibrant mix of dining, from woodfired pizza at Rustico to relaxed brunch at Pomegranate. Savour Mexican tacos at local favourite 8Things, enjoy comforting Korean dishes at Sanwiye, or step into the storybook surrounds of The Yellow Deli. Just two minutes away, Minnehaha Falls offers a peaceful escape with cascading waters and forest surrounds. Within ten minutes, you can reach the iconic Katoomba Falls, the majestic Three Sisters, and the beautifully preserved Everglades House & Gardens. For breathtaking mountain views with your coffee, don’t miss a visit to the Conservation Hut Café, a ten-minute drive from your place.
