Off grid tranquillity with beautiful views and no other house in sight

Dramatic sustainable house designed for his own dwelling and holiday rental by Philip Boorman who has many awards for his outstanding Architectural work and furniture designs.

Located on the escarpment in the centre of the 125 acre site. This privileged isolation has allowed the house design to be opened to the expansive surrounding valley and mountains by the extensive use of timber framed bi-fold doors and windows. Solar panels generate the power supply and roof water is collected in tanks for filtered reuse within the home.

Relaxing stay in beautiful setting

The lodge is well laid out and of a striking design making the most of the natural surroundings. The outdoor setting is perfect for relaxing and dining and the bedrooms very comfortable. Very convenient having 2 bathrooms and the bath with a view was very relaxing. The host could not be more helpful and our stay, despite torrential rain, was very enjoyable. Hope to return in better weather.

Peaceful weekend away with our pup

Our stay was seamless from the start. The host met us, waited for us to get takeaway and then showed us the property. The pictures don’t do it justice, we saw owl, wallaby and heaps of wildlife. It’s not fenced but that wasn’t a problem for our pup as there were no neighbours. The property had everything we needed and was in a great location. Definitely want to return!!
