Last Listing description (April 2011)
Colonial Cottage Residence c1833
The Cottage Residence is situated on an 1811m2 allotment and was subdivided in 1983 from the original parcel of land granted to Captain D Arcy Wentworth in 1833. D Arcy was notably the first Australian born Commissioned Officer in the British Army and was the brother of the noted explorer, William Wentworth, who discovered a track through the Blue Mountains.
After receiving his land grant, D Arcy went on to build a two storey Georgian stone residence, known as Wentworth House, and numerous out buildings, one of which now forms part of the current cottage.
*There is also coach-house, stabling, meat house, dairy, cow shed, and a portion of these erections are so situated that a convenient Cottage Residence could be contrived*.
The building is comprised of three conjoined structures; the original is built using local timbers, with the walls, locally quarried sandstone randomly laid. The two later additions occupy both the fore and rear of the main original structure. Laden and plaster is used extensively in the ceiling and walls of the rear addition as well as the ceiling of the original structure. The building has twin gabled roofing with the original central roof clad in shingles now with an iron overlay.
Within the later additions certain walls and ceiling plaster, as well as the old 1950 s kitchen and bathroom fittings have been removed enabling a blank canvas for the new owner as well as highlighting the historical character of the original stone work of the building.
The property overlooks the manicured grounds of Wentworth House to the right and the Clyde River to the rear, only 40 meters from the property boundary. Adjacent to the property is the historical Croakers Alley, a grassed and sandstone stepped pathway, leading through the local authority reserve allotment from Wentworth Street across the Clyde River and continuing through to Barrack Street. The reserve is complete with picnic tables and a foot bridge (originally built in 1832) joining both sides of the river. The area provides a picturesque country side backdrop to the cottage residence.
Along Wentworth Street is an array of listed heritage properties including Clifton Priory c 1847 (now a luxury lodge), The Tannery (a group of three stone buildings), Fort Wentworth c1832 and Wentworth House c 1833. The Cottage Residence forms a historical component within the street and within the character of the central highlands town of Bothwell.
