Paradise Found - Rare and unique garden - Valley views - Outstanding Hills location
Over a period of 30 years the late G.D. Miller noted horticulturist and landscape architect, designed, planted and nurtured his personal cool-climate garden. Although some tending is now needed, this garden is truly a botanical treasure trove. With the huge array of traditional and unique plantings across 8923m2, it stands as a testament to his vision.
Built in the 1980's on the eastern slope, adjacent to the stone ruins of the original Ridge Cottage, the current home offers far reaching views across the valley and the ranges beyond. Timber-framed and clad, this comfortable home also provides the opportunity for modern enhancement and perhaps a second storey addition to maximise its great potential.
