THE INCREDIBLE HISTORY OF LINDEN LODGE

Being an imposing 1870s Residential Lodge and a distinguished historic house of exceptional comfort, this building is approaching 150 years old and survives as one of the oldest masonry structures to still stand in the Blue Mountains.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to immerse yourself in a slice of Blue Mountains history, with stunning valley views. Linden Lodge is a truly exceptional and rare example of a historic Victorian home built in the Blue Mountains, approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes from Sydney. Linden Railway station is just a stroll away.

Originally built by William Henderson, a prosperous warehouseman, this Victorian home was completed in 1876. This gracious period home has much of the original features retained and is set on a 5523m block. The property once boasted a tennis court and a 9-hole golf course; sadly, those days have passed and have been left as a note of a prosperous lifestyle and history of the past. History shows the property has been used as a private residence and has also been used as a country retreat. In 1916 the property became a very successful up-market boarding house and post office from the Lodge until 1919 and later a school. Linden Railway station is just a stroll away; Henderson had Linden Railway station built with support from neighbours.
