Tucked into a breathtaking valley rich in native flora and fauna, this remarkable 11.11 acre (approx) retreat offers more than just a home, it offers a way of life. Designed by award-winning architect John Maitland, the north-facing residence captures light, air and connection to nature at every turn. Crafted with rammed earth walls, passive energy principles and a strong focus on sustainability, this is a home for those who care deeply about their impact and the environment around them.
The residence itself is both beautiful and highly functional, with polished concrete and bamboo floors, comfort E-glazing, in-screed bathroom heating and slow combustion heating with a wet-back system supported by solar. Every window tells a story, framing panoramic bushland views - a reminder of the extraordinary ecosystem you're part of.
Beyond the main home, a charming mudbrick hut built in 1984 and a fully plumbed, double-glazed studio added in 2014 offer versatility and income potential (previously a successful B&B). The land has been the focus of 25+ years of regenerative work and is now a rare and protected remnant woodland home to endangered bandicoots, vulnerable antechinus, and over 70 species of birds.
Here, you can wake to birdsong, walk with wildlife, and steward a property with deep heritage and future-focused purpose. If you've been searching for something meaningful, beautiful, and wholly unique, this is it.
