Property information

This dreamy cottage will reconnect you with nature as each outlook highlights towering treetops and mountainside sounds. Newly renovated, you can enjoy a nature holiday without sacrificing the creature comforts of home. The living room features a chaise lounge, wall-mounted TV, air conditioning and a selection of books. The office is set up for remote work with Wi-Fi, an ergonomic chair and a monitor. The kitchen has a cute retro style while boasting contemporary appliances such as an induction stove and range hood, oven and pastel blue fridge. A wooden bench wraps around the kitchen providing ample room for meal prep and doubles as a casual dining space with four wooden stools. On a clear night, cosy up around the well-lit fire pit or heat up the BBQ and dine outside on the large picnic table by the outdoor heater. There are two additional small seating areas which are perfect for enjoying a morning brew amongst the trees. Rest easy at night in two spacious bedrooms, both featuring pillows and blankets to keep you cosy, wardrobe storage and shuttered windows—with peaking views of the surrounding valley. The main bedroom features a larger queen bed. The bathroom exudes a luxe charm with a clawfoot bath and gold tapware under a shower. A long timber vanity provides plenty of space for your belongings and a washing machine is neatly tucked underneath for your convenience. The driveway provides room for one vehicle. The driveway is steep and there is nowhere to turn around. You will need to take care when reversing and towable items such as trailers and caravans are not permitted to be bought onto the property. Water supply is provided through a tank. Please be conscious of water usage during your stay; if the water supply runs out and an additional refill is needed, we will handle the associated costs. NBN connection is not possible so please manage expectations on WiFi speed, and the shower over bath may not be suitable for those with mobility issues.
