Standing majestically amid the gum trees and burnt orange bottlebrush, with spectacular views to Mount Donna Buang and Mount Victoria, this sturdy, steel grand design, featured in Inside Out architecture magazine, beckons the discerning downsizer or weekend city escape. Atop a slow-rising block, at the end of a long, sealed driveway, this
north-facing retreat offers warmth and comfort, and unique interior Features.

Nine metres of floor-to-ceiling, double-glazed windows with electric shutters frame the stunning backdrop to the sun-drenched, open plan living area of 50 square metres. Whether entertaining guests from behind the island bench of the neat and elegant kitchen, enjoying a leisurely meal in the dining area, or relaxing in the expansive lounge or by the central potbelly wood fire, the wild beauty of nature is all around.

Incorporated into the simple design are two bedrooms and a study that would easily convert into a third, at either end of the main room. A large balcony for barbecues, taking in the views and fresh air, or just relaxing with a glass of wine, stretches out from the living space. A simple bathroom and laundry are tucked away.

Under the house there is a large storage area, a workshop, and undercover parking space for two cars. A gently sloping path meanders around the perimeter where, at any moment, you may stop, sit and take in the surrounding forest, or wander among the mature Eucalypts and native vegetation. Although it feels like you are in your own world, it's a five-minute walk to the township of Warburton. Solar panels and solar hot water will help keep the bills to a minimum, complete with fruiting avocado trees, a veggie garden ready to plant will enhance with the country living style.

Soak up the pristine surroundings in this one-of-a-kind bush oasis.
