Summary: This house feels modern and well designed, but also like a well-loved family home; the living areas feel both spacious and cozy. We liked it very much. Great location looking out over temperate rainforest, feels very private and peaceful. You can walk into sassafras along the road and then up a trail along the creek, about 1km. Great communication with owner, all the amenities you need.
