Inside the fairytale castle hidden in the Australian countryside Alice Murphy For Daily Mail Australia © Provided by Daily Mail MailOnline logo
Less than a half hour s drive from Canberra is an extraordinary manor that looks to have been plucked straight from the pages of a fairytale.
Just like a storybook castle, Tour Rouge - French for Red Tower - is hidden behind wrought iron gates which open onto a winding driveway that leads to the front door, an opulent style inspired by the grounds of Italian villas.
Standout features of the four-bedroom house in Carwoola, 26 kilometres from the Australian capital on the NSW border, include a Tuscan tower, solar heated swimming pool, sprawling sun terrace, three-acre gardens and a luxurious open-plan living space that could pass for a spread in Architectural Digest.
