Peace & enlightenment
This totally private property with a two-road frontage to Rose Road & Tuntable Creek Road is accessed via a long curved drive, then pathway, funneling all fortune toward the north facing entrance.This is Feng Shui.
The house is positioned with regard to the concept of the'Dragon's Shoulder' which uses natural landscape features to determine its position and the flow of Qi (energy) . This property is then so believed to be protected within the 'belly of the dragon” as it is embraced and shielded by land formation from predominant winds,and to it's left,
Tuntable Falls, allowing positive Qi .
The front door is the primary entry point for energy and for this purpose the beautiful and substantial 150 year old door and lock was chosen. A celestially aligned residence, lighting positioned doors and coloured glass windows specifically for summer solstice dawns.
Beautiful timbers are featured throughout this two-story home: Brushbox floors, Douglas Fir balustrades, Ironbark decking, Yellow Stringybark Sub-floors and siding.
Lower floor is prime living space with beautiful timber brushbox flooring, open-plan lounge/dining, kitchen featuring Rose Wood cabinetry and Rayburn wood stove, a separate laundry and bathroom with a white claw-foot bath and separate shower, and loo all with access to and from the verandah. Lovely heritage styled timber and brass light switches dotted throughout all rooms. Both Red & white Mahogany has been used for exposed rafters & joists and hoop-pine graces the staircase.
Top floor feels more open and spacious due to the beautiful raked timber ceilings, again red & white mahogany, which allow more natural light and airflow. One private bedroom to which is attached a substantial lock up attic-styled storage space. The adjoining open loft room is large enough to accommodate a living space, a studio or second open bedroom. The loft also features an adjoining 'Juliette' balcony placed primarily for a winter solstice sunset.
Red painted railings, symbolising passion, luck, joy vitality, power and celebration, adorn the spacious covered verandahs, where total peace is assured whilst you take in the natural surroundings the birdlife and view to Tuntable Falls.
