What they say
Also in Wallpaper*.
Those sophisticated two and four-bed ‘sheds’ harmoniously utilise native timbers and up-cycled heritage sandstone to intuitive modern effect.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Kangaroo Valley village is fifteen minutes away, while surrounding temperate rainforest and sandstone trails are shared with wombats and wallabies.
The rooms
Reclaimed sandstone, native timber walls, and wood fireplaces frame mountain views through floor-to-ceiling glass, opening onto decks with fire pits.
The rock pools
A walking track leads to freshwater rock pools along the creek, shaded by river gums and rainforest.
How it began
The property operated as a family farm for six decades before transforming into an off-grid retreat inspired by classic rural sheds.
