Set within a private stretch of native forest, this thoughtfully restored cabin rests on approximately 7.5 acres (3.058ha), along over 400 metres of the Kermandie River, a permanent creek that forms the southern boundary of the property. The setting is both immersive and calming, where birdsong carries through the trees and the steady movement of water becomes part of the daily atmosphere. A cleared expanse of lawn surrounds the cabin, offering plenty of natural light, and a quiet sense of arrival near the end of a country lane. The real bonus here is the Sauna and outdoor hot-tub overlooking the river.Originally a humble pickers hut, the transformation has been meticulously reimagined into a warm and inviting home, carefully balancing rustic character with modern comfort. Fully insulated, rewired, and re-plumbed, the cabin offers a refined country aesthetic, with all the charm of a by-gone era. Known as 'The Pickers Cabin', it is currently operating as an accommodation shared with visiting guests, and has proven to be very popular.A covered deck welcomes you inside via a practical mudroom, ideal after time spent outdoors, before opening through a sliding barn door into the heart of the cabin. The kitchen and living area unfold in an open-plan design, filled with natural light and a gentle connection to the surrounding rural and forest landscape. A built-in wood fire creates a cosy atmosphere, while large windows perfectly frame the views. A bi-fold servery window seamlessly links the kitchen to the deck, where a wood-fired pizza oven invites long, relaxed gatherings.French doors extend the living space outdoors, opening to a sun-deck, echoed again in both bedrooms, each enjoying their own quiet connection to the outside. The bathroom is a standout, with a deep claw-foot bath, walk-in tiled shower, and carefully selected fittings that speak to both quality and individuality. The mudroom also incorporates a discreet laundry, completing a layout that is both practical and considered.Outdoors, the lifestyle offering is rich yet unassuming. A wood-fired sauna and red cedar hot tub sit nestled within the landscape, perfectly placed to take in the sounds of the creek and surrounding forest. Evenings lend themselves naturally to the fire pit, while the river invites slow wanderings and moments of stillness, whilst creating a wonderful connection to nature, maybe even a sighting of the resident platypus.
