Overview

Appalachian Log Home on the Murrumbidgee

Perched high above a sweeping bend of the Murrumbidgee River, this remarkable architect-designed Appalachian Log home feels as though it has grown out of the landscape around it. Set across approximately 122 acres the home looks north and north-west over the river and surrounding bushland. Expansive decks create places to sit and slow down, to contemplate the flowing river and the changing landscape through each season. Tranquility and connection to land vibrate throughout, making it feel distinctly different from the typical country home, while still having all the modern conveniences and comforts. Architect David Epstein, inspired by the unique contours of the Murrambidgee river corridor designed the home to step naturally within the sloping hill across three distinct split levels. At its heart on the ground floor, the open-plan living, dining and kitchen areas connect to a central light filled conservatory that leads you out to the sweeping deck, while the four bedrooms and study higher in the home continue to capture those extraordinary river views. Natural, warm timber throughout, log walls, double glazing and a soaring chalet form give the home both character and thermal solar passsive performance. But perhaps the greatest luxury here is what lies below. The Murrumbidgee is only 100 metres from the house, putting swimming, kayaking and quiet afternoons beside the river within easy reach. This is a property that offers something increasingly difficult to find: an architect-designed home, genuine acreage and your own connection to one of Australia's great rivers.
