Step inside a selection of historically significant Lower Blue Mountains properties, wander through beautiful autumn gardens and join us for an array of special dining events.
The popular ‘Looking at Architecture’ program returns this autumn.
Join us for a unique glimpse into the history and heritage of the Lower Blue Mountains, with visits to a curated selection of significant properties across Glenbrook, Springwood and Woodford.
This self-drive weekend will provide Members and friends with the opportunity to discover the villages that developed along the road to the west and view many architecturally significant homes and gardens.
Highlights include:
- View homes of architectural significance that range from a 1919 weatherboard cottage to the home and studio of noted contemporary artists
- Private properties open to view include a modern house of corrugated iron and glass that showcases the natural beauty of the Blue Mountains as you gaze through floor to ceiling windows
- For horticulture lovers, the six-acre garden of a federation stone bungalow is a must see along with a visit to a California-style Mediterranean garden featuring landscape succulents that are both sculptural and drought tolerant
The program also includes a number of special add-on hospitality experiences, including a hosted afternoon tea at the Norman Lindsay Gallery on Friday, drinks and canapés in the courtyard at Woodford Academy plus a visit to the ceramic studio of Caitlyn Hepworth on Saturday afternoon, and a relaxed Sunday lunch provided by Springwood Rotary at The Old Farm in Yellow Rock.
