Lough Swilly - Mount Victoria Terrace House | House in Mount Victoria
2 Bedroom House in Mount Victoria
Step into ‘Lough Swilly’ Mount Victoria, one of three attached heritage listed Victorian terrace houses that once formed the first Mount Victoria Royal Bank during the 1880s. experience at this centrally located place.
Lough Swilly is one of three completely self contained terraces and is the middle section of the building.
Lovingly restored by two generations, the terrace has been sympathetically restored, retaining original features such as the stained-glass windows and ornamental fireplaces whilst bringing in some modern comforts.
There is a fully equipped, updated and stylish kitchen and bathroom both downstairs. Lough Swilly has its own private patio off of the kitchen and shared access to the back garden.
Lough Swilly can sleep up to four adult guests. One of the bedrooms is located upstairs. The other bedroom is located downstairs positioned between the lounge room and kitchen to offer accessibility for guests with mobility limitations or older guests. This bedroom does not have doors and therefore is not entirely private. If you wish to have two completely separate and private bedrooms The Foyle or The Bank house may be more suited.
You will be staying at Mount Victoria, the highest point of the Blue Mountains, the most historic and heritage listed town in the Mountains.
Mount Victoria is the perfect position to explore other towns in the Blue Mountains, the Central West, Jenolan Caves and towns along the historic Bells Line of Road.
Lough Swilly is centrally located within walking distance to Cafes, Antique stores, a Museum, the Historic Mount Vic Flicks Cinema and Train Station.
In Mount Victoria you can easily walk to spectacular local lookouts that provide views of bushland and rural valleys. There are several beautiful and rarely frequented historic bushwalks, an atmospheric art-house cinema, two great cafes and antique and gift shops.
Mount Victoria Memorial Park is a 2-minute walk from the terrace which has a tennis court that is free to use.
The Blue Mountains National Park can be accessed by car from the Eastern side of Mount Victoria. It is a short 5-minute drive to historic Mount York from the terrace (this is the original mountain pass of 1813).

Lithgow and Katoomba (20-minute drives in either direction) both have large chain supermarkets and department stores.
