“'Rockfield Park' is 1000 acres of pristine land, with over 800 acres of cleared, useable land, most enjoying the spectacular views of the entire Shoalhaven coast. The views are truly magical.”

Rockfield Park stole Lee's heart from the moment she turned off Kangaroo Valley Road, becoming a haven of beauty, peace and tranquillity for her to keep her mind sharp and her business acumen functioning.

“Lee and her husband designed the main residence, working with an architect of Scottish heritage to capture the design elements and raw materials that would respect and compliment the natural surrounds. They incorporated the original room and grand exterior sandstone wall into the building,” Nick told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND.
Inside, four lavish bedrooms and three bathrooms radiate warmth. Grandeur is evident in details from the cathedral windows and imposing fireplaces to the rich timber interiors. Oversized windows ensure a seamless blend of inside and out.

An additional residence and a whimsical tiny home lie within its sprawling grounds, each echoing a dedication to creativity and comfort. These spaces, surrounded by nature's canvas of rolling paddocks, temperate forests, and boundless horizons, nurtured Lee's artistic pursuits. Wandering through the established grounds, ornamental and deciduous trees stand tall, encapsulating a sense of peace and seclusion.
