Hot Deal: 5 nights for the price of 4 this April (7 April - 20 April 2026)
Located in the Southern Highlands, this Joadja masterpiece is the most iconic, private home by Australia's architectural master the late Harry Seidler. Famously known as Seidler House, this is arguably Seidlers most striking residential masterpiece built into the natural rock formation, this award-winning design was completed in 2000 and positioned on the edge of a rugged sandstone escarpment so as to ensure panoramic bush views overlooking the deep picturesque gorge of the Wingecarribee River, Joadja, Mittagong and Bowral in the Southern Highlands. Seidler House has been celebrated in several international magazines, including Architectural Digest, and projects the glamour of Hollywood Hills mansions.
The home features spacious open plan interiors with floor to ceiling glass walls that invite in an abundance of natural light and warmth, as well as opening up the home to the breathtaking views and scenery that await you. Opposing curved roofs, local stone, Alta quartzite floors, Verde marina granite and Norwegian stone are all artfully blended together to create a breathtaking indoor atmosphere. White walls complement the stone and generous living spaces with open fireplaces crafted together to create a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor. Expansive viewing decks, vast outdoor gardens and entertaining areas, sculptures and stone gardens that lead to a central swimming pool are truly spectacular additions to the home. Seidler House is art imitating life it sits like a sculpture that is proudly set amongst 150 acres of natural bush with 2kms of river, where privacy is assured like no other. Wildlife abounds with wombats, kangaroos, platypus, koalas, and bird life in the near vicinity.
With four bedrooms, this home can comfortably provide luxury accommodation for up to eight people to take advantage of. It is the ideal location to escape to, with local restaurants, cafes, wineries, boutiques, antique shops and a variety of sporting facilities close by to keep you amused. The overall atmosphere that is created is a magical combination of privacy, tranquility, and luxury that is in complete harmony with nature.
I want to defy gravity as Italian engineer, Pier Lugi Nervi did while creating something in three dimensions that is poetic and beautiful Harry Seidler.

there were 7 of us that celebrated a great weekend in this house. The house is perfect with great position of the rooms, lounge and kitchen. The views are amazing. We found the kitchen to be very well stocked. The beds were very comfy and given it was a chilly weekend the electric blankets came in handy! The pool would be amazing in summer.........we will be back.
