  • *What makes this property special? This is more than just a property - it's a place with heart, history, and a deep-rooted connection to nature and community.

  • Authentic Mud Brick Architecture with Soul The three dwellings were hand-built with care and intention, using mud sourced directly from the on-site dam and rocks gathered from the nearby creek - including those that now form the distinctive shower wall. Each structure embodies a commitment to sustainable living and a deep respect for the natural environment.

  • Spiritual Heritage Over 30 years ago, during Margaret Martin's residency, a lama lived here for several years while the property served as a Buddhist retreat. It was a sanctuary for quiet contemplation and connection, and its spiritual legacy still lingers in the peaceful energy of the land and the thoughtful design of the spaces.

  • Locally Built with Community Spirit Built with the help of local residents, these homes reflect a genuine sense of place, belonging, and authenticity. This is a home with a story - one created not just by owners, but by a community.

  • Incredible Versatility Featuring a main homestead, studio cottage, and an expansive multipurpose building, the property is ideal for private retreats, multi-generational living, an artist's haven, or a return to its roots as a wellness or spiritual retreat.
