đ Views in Every Direction
Because the home sits elevated along a quiet forested slope,
most bedrooms, the living room, and the long balcony all look outward to layered mountains and treetops.
Here, the scenery isnât a featureâitâs part of daily living.
Morning light moves slowly across the space, and evenings settle gently into forest quiet.
đż Balcony & Outdoor Calm
Step onto the extended timber balcony where time naturally slows down.
Outdoor dining for long breakfasts or sunset dinners
Soft lounge seating and a hanging chair overlooking the trees
Gas BBQ for relaxed outdoor meals
And sometimes, nature adds a quiet surpriseâ
white sulphur-crested cockatoos may visit the railing, occasionally lining up side by side for a brief pause.
Please enjoy them with your eyes only and do not feed them, so this gentle wild encounter can remain natural.

Three full bathrooms ensure ease for group stays:
Master ensuite with soaking tub and greenery outlook
Second bathroom with both bathtub and shower
Downstairs bathroom with walk-in shower
Bright, clean, and thoughtfully arranged for shared comfort.

Indoor dining sits close to the view, while the upstairs living area offers a smart TV with Netflix and YouTube access (guests log in with their own accounts), a small bar corner, and comfortable seating facing the mountains.
Itâs a space made for slow conversations, quiet reading, and unhurried evenings.

The Neighborhood:
Our home is located in a quiet neighbourhood, and we kindly ask guests to keep noise to a minimum at all times.
Other Things to Note:
Walking through the woods on our property involves a steep descent, making the terrain quite challenging. We advise against crossing or playing in these sloped forested areas.
In the heart of the forest, especially during spring and summer, insect repellents become essential â it's part of the natural experience!
Friendly reminder that this house runs on septic. Please do not flush anything other than toilet paper. Thank you :)
We ensure the decking is thoroughly cleaned after each guest's departure. However, as our home is nestled in the forest, leaves may naturally fall onto the deck. For your convenience, efficient brooms are available if you prefer to sweep away any leaves before enjoying this beautiful outdoor space. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
The cleaning fee included in your stay covers all professional cleaning services, as well as linen and laundry expenses. Please note, this fee does not extend to extraordinary cleaning tasks such as BBQ/oven cleaning, washing dirty dishes, rearranging moved furniture, removing stains from furniture, bedding, rugs or carpets, or additional rubbish removal. Guests may incur additional charges for these extra cleaning services."
