About Shepton House:
Shepton House was built in 1904 by Percival and Edith Hammon, whose son, Harry went on to create the iconic Scenic World, one of the Blue Mountains major tourist attractions (and a walk away from Shepton House). It was named 'Shepton' after Edith's birthplace in England. We look forward to sharing this special home with you!
