About Property

Escape to the captivating Slate House, a magical private eco-friendly off-grid retreat tucked away in the forest high atop magnificent Mount Toolebewong. This unique stacked slate house blends character and charm, offering a secluded sanctuary surrounded by lush rainforest and flourishing tree ferns where you can experience the morning mist and sun filtering through the canopy.

Designed for comfort and style, this fully renovated cottage accommodates up to 6 guests across 3 large bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The downstairs layout features a spacious bedroom with a king bed, luxurious soft furnishings, and premium linens. Upstairs, the second bedroom offers a queen bed, while the third provides flexibility with two king singles, both boasting stunning views through the treetops. The home includes a large downstairs bathroom with a luxurious vanity and walk-in shower, complemented by a second ensuite bathroom upstairs.

The heart of the home is a well-equipped kitchen featuring a butler's pantry, dishwasher, coffee machine, large fridge, and falcon stove. A huge dining table, crafted from a fallen ash tree from the property, provides a gathering spot for all, while the adjoining lounge with an open fireplace is perfect for cozying up on cooler nights. Throughout the home, beautiful timber floors and gas ducted heating ensure a comfortable stay.

Outdoor living is embraced with garden paths, comfortable lounge furniture, a magnificent hanging egg chair, a fire pit, and a BBQ for entertaining in any weather. As an off-grid property, power is supplied by a near-new generator and a 12-volt battery bank, with water sourced from the mountain and a natural spring. Due to this eco-friendly nature, the home is best suited for resourceful guests.
