Catherine Park House, in the epicentre of Catherine Park Estate, has recently been historically restored to the highest standard. It has undergone a complete transformation both indoors and outdoors, evoking a newfound sophistication and elegance of a bygone era.
While retaining the same charm, the façade of the grand manor house has been freshened up with paint, a new balustrade and new finishes that abide by its historical integrity. The driveway and carriage loop have been topped with fresh gravel to enhance aesthetics and access, and special attention has been invested into the installation of a new water feature that greets people as they come up the extended driveway.
The interior transformation is breathtaking. The beautiful parquetry floor has been lovingly restored and polished following years of foot traffic, with new carpet upstairs. The floor plan has been revised to make for a more logical flow, and the mismatched colour palette has been painted over in a spectrum of neutral sophisticated hues. Beautiful new furniture comprising a mix of period and modern pieces creates a balance between the old and the new, with functionality and beauty equally present in each piece.
From an old home that was forgotten and unloved, Catherine Park House is now a proud manor that stands to tell the stories of the Macarthur region’s rich past. New life has been breathed into it, and it now serves as the Sales & Information Centre for Catherine Park Estate. This allows people to admire it everyday, giving locals a reason to experience the beautiful ambiance for themselves.
