About this property

Andrea's White House Residence, a tranquil escape on 5 acres of natural bushland

Andrea’s White House Residence – your country escape in the Snowy Mountains.

Our fully equipped kitchen has everything you need, including an espresso machine to start your day with the perfect cup of coffee.

Stay with us and unwind in a charming country setting that will leave you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Nestled on 5 acres of natural bushland, we offer the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience.

Prime Location for Year-Round Adventures

We are ideally located near all the summer and winter activities the Snowy Mountains have to offer. Kosciuszko National Park is right on our doorstep, with fantastic walking and biking trails nearby.

Enjoy being away from the hustle and bustle of Jindabyne while still having easy access to town—just a 15-minute drive away. There, you can stock up on supplies, stroll around the lake, or dine at one of the excellent restaurants.

For winter enthusiasts, we’re only a 20-minute drive to Thredbo Village (open year-round) and just 5 minutes from the Ski Tube to Perisher. Avoid the traffic congestion of Jindabyne and be on the slopes in no time!

Spacious, comfortable, and perfect for family and friends.

Our guests love that each of our four king bedrooms with its own en suite bathroom, provides privacy and convenience. The residence comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests, making it an ideal retreat for families or a group of friends.

Outdoor Living at Its Best

For those who love a BBQ, our Family Weber Q in the Alfresco Room is ready for you. This space is a favorite among our guests year-round, offering the perfect spot to relax, watch the sunset, and enjoy a glass of wine while surrounded by nature.

Additional Information

Dual-Key Property: The Residence is part of a dual-key property. We also offer a smaller option, The Retreat, designed for couples or small families. Both accommodations are separate, with no shared spaces or car parking.
Privacy Assured: There is an interconnecting door between the two units, which remains locked for privacy. This has never been an issue for our guests.

On-Site Hosts: We occasionally stay on-site in separate accommodations and are happy to assist if needed. We love welcoming our guests and helping them make the most of their Snowy Mountains experience.

Come and experience country charm, adventure, and relaxation at Andrea’s White House Residence—your perfect home away from home.

About the host

Host profile image
For many years we did the trip from Sydney to the Snowy Mountains. Hubby Greg loves to ski and so does our daughter.
We decided we should try a tree change and bought the White House & lived here and ran our house as a guest house until a business opportunity came up in Sydney and we relocated back to Sydney for work.
Finally after many years we have returned to the White House and are enjoying all the wonderful things on offer in this region....Greg is enjoying the snow fun in winter, as for me I am loving the rural scene and enjoying the great walks in summer.
We do have other business and work commitments which see us moving around a bit...however we do consider this home and really enjoy making sure our guests have a wonderful time.

Why they chose this property

We jumped at the chance to buy the White House, it is unique in that it is 5 acres of rural enjoyment but we are close to the township of Jindabyne and the ski fields for access is great for winter. Properties don't come up very often in this location so we thought we should to do jump in to the rural life .... we think it is one of the best decisions we made.

What makes this property unique

We love the fact that we are on 5 rural acres with breathtaking views and sometimes even snow covered. The house is warm with the underfloor heating so it is delight in winter to just enjoy.
There is plenty of room for all in our Residence.
We love good coffee and cooking up a storm. We make sure the kitchen has everything you need to get the day off to a good start with an espresso and all the gadgets you could think of to help you cook up a storm
What really works well for our guests is the en suite bathroom for each bedroom. We are often told how well this works.
Of truly special note is the screened outdoor Alfresco Room with the Weber Q - this is enjoyed year round by our guests with sun downer drinks and an evening BBQ watching the friendly locals drop by.
Cosy underfloor heating in winter throughout and air conditioning in summer ensures a super comfortable stay.
In Winter one of the biggest benefits during the busy ski season is that we past Jindabyne and all the traffic congestion that we can see...a 5 min drive to the ski tube taking you to Perisher is just perfect and if you are a Thredbo fan then it is just a 20 minute drive. This is really appreciated by our guests in winter.
