Property information

Surrounded by native crown bush land and set in a re-vegetated bush garden, Riversdale Retreat is an uncompromising, award winning, country escape. ACCOMMODATION - Open-plan living area and a fully equipped kitchen ready for self-catering. A tatami lounge area and a Japanese style bathroom provide a touch of the exotic. Paved outdoor areas include outdoor fireplace, prep bench and sink. In winter the wood fire heater efficiently heats entire house. Floating decks and indoor/outdoor day bed are the perfect way to catch and enjoy the winter sun. Sleeps 2 or 3 adults with 1 queen size and 1 single bed. The perfect private getaway for a couple! ENVIRONMENTAL RELATIONSHIP AND LOCATION - Compact, climate and occupant adaptable located in semi bush. Designed to sit off the land yet be immersed within, it can open and close to nature, views and sun. The building is designed with environmentally sustainable design principles, solar hot water, rainwater tank and is super insulated.
