Perfect for guests, family, a home office or Airbnb as it has been created to withstand the elements of life in the Australian countryside, while also looking magnificent.
Capitalising on beautiful valley views with a mix of outdoor living and entertaining areas, and positioned on a private rise, just 5 minutes from beautiful Dungog, this property is a dream weekender or family retreat. Nestled on 40 acres the home and property improvements have been designed to compliment the rural surrounds.
The home boasts the best of open plan living, with timber lined ceilings and large double glazed doors adding to the ambient connection to nature.

A combustion fireplace with ducted heating keeps the home cosy throughout winter.

The home's solar panels and battery storage and ample workspaces could make this your perfect work from home location. Sustainably focused, the house also has five water tanks.
The established gardens provide shade over the home and also draw you outside, where the spectacularly positioned inground pool provides an enviable view across the valley and township. The lush lawns give way to two well set up paddocks featuring three secure dams, supported by a header tank. Meander through the sculpture paddock picking a spot to stop, breath and relax.
