The Space:
Welcome to Your Home on the Homestead!
Tucked away on a peaceful 1.5-acre block, this spacious country home is the perfect getaway for families, groups, or anyone craving a slower pace and a taste of simple living.
With room for up to 13 guests (12 plus a baby), the house offers 6 bedrooms, 3 comfy living areas, and plenty of space for everyone to spread out and relax. Whether you’re sharing meals around the big family table, playing board games in one of the lounges, or watching the sunset from the verandah, there’s room for everyone to feel at home.
Step outside and you’ll find a huge backyard, perfect for kids to run, explore, and play. You can wander down to the creek for a paddle or canoe, or simply soak up the peaceful sounds of nature.
This is more than just a house—it’s a working mini-farm! You’ll be greeted by 70+ friendly chickens, a thriving veggie patch, and fruit trees bursting with seasonal goodness. Fresh eggs are collected daily, and our caretaker will stop by occasionally to feed the animals, tend to the garden, and pick some vegetables for you to enjoy if they’re ready.
There’s also parking for up to 10 cars, plus a large 2.5-car garage, so there’s plenty of space for everyone to come and go.
If you’re looking for a family-friendly escape where kids can experience farm life, parents can unwind, and everyone can reconnect with nature, this is your spot.
Come for the space, stay for the fresh air, the chickens, and the peace that only a true homestead can bring.
Guest Access:
You have full access to the entire home, including all six bedrooms, three living areas, kitchen, dining spaces, verandah, and backyard. You’re welcome to explore the gardens, fruit trees, and visit the chickens. The creek area is also open for you to enjoy. Please note, our caretaker may stop by occasionally to feed the animals and tend to the garden.
Interaction with Guests:
We respect your privacy but are happy to provide help when needed. You can reach out anytime via phone or message for questions, local tips, or assistance during your stay. Our caretaker may visit occasionally to care for the animals and garden, but we’ll always coordinate with you to ensure minimal disruption.

About the host
Hosted by Stayable
Hi, we’re Luke and Stacey, experienced hosts with 20+ years in real estate and 8+ years managing properties. As a family of nine (with seven kids!), we know how to create seamless, comfortable stays. We love to travel, stay busy, and share our homes with guests. Our goal is simple: to offer memorable stays built on comfort, care, and reliability.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with this area for its peaceful country charm and the way it feels miles away from the rush of everyday life — yet still close enough to everything you need. Surrounded by open fields, tall trees, and the gentle sounds of nature, it’s the kind of place where time seems to slow down.
There’s something special about waking up to fresh air, hearing birds instead of traffic, and watching the sun set over the paddocks in the evening. Families love the wide-open spaces, while nature lovers enjoy the nearby walking trails, creeks, and local produce markets.
What we enjoy most is the sense of calm and connection this area brings — to the land, to each other, and to a simpler, more peaceful way of living. It’s the perfect setting for guests to relax, recharge, and truly feel at home.

What makes this property unique
What truly sets our homestead apart is the perfect blend of comfort, space, and authentic country charm. Set on a peaceful 1.5-acre block, our home isn’t just a place to stay — it’s an experience.
Wake up to the sound of birds, collect fresh eggs from our friendly chickens, and pick vegetables straight from the garden. This is your chance to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with nature — all while enjoying the comforts of a spacious, modern country home.
With six bedrooms, three cozy living areas, and plenty of open space indoors and out, there’s room for everyone — whether you’re a big family, a group of friends, or multiple generations coming together. Kids love exploring the backyard, splashing in the creek, and meeting our farm animals, while adults can unwind on the verandah with a coffee or watch the sun set over the trees.
Unlike a typical holiday house, our property offers a true taste of farm life — with over 70 chickens, fruit trees, and a working veggie patch cared for by our friendly caretaker. You can even enjoy seasonal produce fresh from the land!
It’s a place where memories are made, where you’ll find peace, laughter, and a touch of country magic that stays with you long after you leave.
