Alencon | Charming home with 2 Fireplaces in a bush setting

Discover Alencon, your serene escape nestled in the heart of Blackheath. Surrounded by whispering gumtrees and tranquil vistas, this charming retreat offers the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience, just a short stroll from the village. Designed for comfort and relaxation, Alencon features three inviting bedrooms accommodating up to six guests. The home’s cozy ambiance is enhanced by two slow-combustion fireplaces and reverse cycle air conditioning, ensuring year round comfort.

The sunlit living room invites lazy afternoons with a good book, while the adjoining dining area overlooks the lush garden, ideal for leisurely breakfasts or long, relaxed lunches. Step outside onto the elevated bush balcony, where you can savour your morning coffee among the treetops, enjoy peaceful birdwatching, or gather with friends for a relaxed B B Q as the sun sets over the serene natural surrounds. It’s a wonderful space for entertaining or simply unwinding, immersed in the sights and sounds of the mountains. Take a gentle stroll to nearby Blackheath Memorial Park or visit Govetts Leap Lookout for breathtaking views across the Blue Mountains.

Inside, the fully equipped kitchen, modern bathrooms, and thoughtful touches like quality linen and towels make Alencon feel like a true home away from home. Whether you’re curling up by the fire, hosting a long lunch on the balcony, or exploring local trails, this peaceful hideaway offers a genuine connection to nature and the charming spirit of Blackheath.

Great Bushland setting

We had weekend stay at this excellent property. It is very well maintained and has lots of space. It is only a short distance to Blackheath town centre. Our highlight with the property was the family room area which had great views over bushland. Definitely recommend.

In Nature

We enjoyed the property nestled among beautiful trees but close to everything, lots of space for the whole family with lots of nature views, and great books about the area which we used to plan our walks. The only downside was the automated online communication which worked well enough for the check in, but not when we found bathmats and hand towels were missing (never got any response to our polite inquiry). It was bot a big deal though and we would definitely stay there again

Lovely stay at Alencon. We hope to come again.Clean, comfortable bedrooms, beautiful views from main lounge room and dining area. Excellent heating options (fires or aircon). Kitchen was great with plenty of kitchenware, cookware, appliances etc. Even a study nook with desk for a little work away from home. Family and pet friendly, sliding doors made it easy to manage different areas of the house. Wonderful access to bush tracks and a short walk up to Blackheath shopts or down to rocket park!

Beautiful Walks

Around Blackheath National parks has done a great job in restoring the walks. Popes Glen, Cliff Top, Braeside and the Grand Canyon are all wonderful walks. And this house Alencon is at the beginning of the Popes Glen walk.
