“Randen Lea” A Place to Call Home

Driving up the winding tree lined avenue, fleeting glimpses of the double storey artists' residence nestled on the north face of the Meehan Range give a hint of what is to come.

Numerous well-proportioned, north facing windows and French doors welcome you home and provide passive heating and a bright yet sheltered living environment.

14.000 hand cleaned bricks sourced from various locations including Roberts Woolstore are used in the two toned patterned brickwork walls and extensive paved paths that wind around the house to both front doors and to multiple secluded seating areas.

Dry stone rock walls, rock paving and garden borders line driveways and further link the house to the surrounding open spaces and borrowed views.

Inside, large exposed recycled oregan floor beams (from the Boyer paper mill) support the upstairs loft floor, whilst a series of recycled exposed hardwood rafters from the Roberts Wool Store support the roof, setting up a structural rhythm against the mainly white walls and lime washed ceilings. Solid bespoke stairs are constructed from the leftover beam sections.

This flexible house was originally designed as a double storey, open plan, three-bedroom residence with attached ancillary apartment. The owners used the large downstairs open plan living area as a studio, with a divided but open plan sleeping loft above.

In the self contained ancillary dwelling bespoke stairs lead up to a loft bath area with views over the valley. This is truly a space that needs to be experienced to fully appreciate how majestic it is.

Originally developed to accommodate much loved dressage horses, organically shaped paddocks/open grassed areas and a dressage arena are connected by curved driveways, paths and creek crossings.

Endemic native vegetation lines the ephemeral Bourbon Creek which meanders through the property. Native plantings on the steeper areas of the land frame distant and more intimate views, giving a sense of discovery and privacy as you move from space to space, providing a great place for exploration and play.

Set on 2.974 hectares (approx.) with large shed and carport is fitted with 22 x 250Watt solar panels.

Constructed over nearly 25 years every building and landscaping detail has been considered to achieve aesthetic and functional outcomes. A great place to show of your treasures, this well-designed house is a true home: it is cosy, yet expansive, it is peaceful, yet exciting. It is relatively low maintenance, flexible and now available for someone special to make it their own.
