Elevated Serenity Overlooking Bushland
Nestled on a private property behind Happs Winery on a challenging steep site, this custom-built retreat embraces its unique bushland setting with uninterrupted views that immerse you in nature. Designed as the first stage of a two-phase project, this thoughtfully crafted accommodation sets the foundation for future expansion while delivering immediate charm and functionality.
Quaint Comfort with a Bushland Soul
Constructed with an all-timber frame to navigate the steep terrain, this retreat features a cozy kitchenette tailored for hosted accommodation. The design maximizes its elevated position, with a balcony that creates the sensation of floating among the treetops, thanks to a dramatic drop that enhances the sense of seclusion. Every detail, from the timber framework to the strategic positioning, ensures stability and harmony with the rugged landscape.
Future-Ready with Timeless Appeal
Stage 1 is complete, with the accommodation thoughtfully oriented to ensure privacy for the future main house in Stage 2, which will face the opposite direction. This clever positioning guarantees a serene bush outlook with no neighboring houses in sight, offering a true escape into nature. The retreat’s quaint charm and modern functionality make it ideal for hosting guests or generating income, all while setting the stage for a seamless future expansion.
This bushland retreat is a testament to innovative design on a challenging site — a tranquil, elevated haven that blends rustic allure with modern practicality, perfectly poised for its natural setting.
