′Walden Flinders′ - Manageable Garden Sanctuary in Rural Setting
A world beautifully apart, ‘Walden Flinders′ captures the essence of timeless rural living across approximately 7.6 acres of enchanting gardens, orchard groves, and bushland rich in texture and colour. Awash with warmth and serenity, this picturesque retreat blends soulful architecture with a whimsical landscape that invites both quiet reflection and grand-scale entertaining beneath the open sky.
The landscaped grounds evoke a sense of wonder and discovery, with meandering garden paths leading past fruit trees, sculpted lawns, and native flora that soften into a natural bush trail at the boundary. It’s the perfect setting for hosting large gatherings under the stars or retreating to a secluded nook for morning meditation. Every corner reveals an encounter with nature at its most poetic.
The original 1970s double-brick cottage radiates authenticity, depth, and charm, illuminated by geometric brick floors, exposed trussed ceilings, and a sun-capturing window seat framing sweeping hinterland views. Its three inviting bedrooms and farmhouse kitchen deliver everyday comfort with artisan touches, thoughtfully connected to the beauty of the surrounding landscape.
Beyond the main home, two architecturally distinct studios provide excellent separation for family and guests. The reimagined garage, complete with lofty cathedral beams and steel accents, now serves as a serene guest retreat with a living area, bathroom, and kitchenette.
The contemporary shed contrasts raw materials and polished concrete with clean architectural lines, forming a bold and inviting modern guest pavilion that expands the estate’s versatility. Whether soaking in the freestanding black stone bath beneath open skies, showering under the canopy of eucalypts, or lingering by the fire pit as twilight settles over the valley.
Features include hydronic heating in the main cottage, imported wood heaters and reverse-cycle systems across both studios, and a double garage offering secure storage and workshop space.
