Farmhouse on Top of Varneys Range close to Snowy Mountains & Jindabyne

Farmhouse

Getaway & relax in a lovely small group holiday house in the Snowy Mountains region. Top of the Range is 1200m above sea level and located 13km from East Jindabyne on the Kosciuszko Rd . This country home provides lodge style accommodation with a large lounge/dining room, a well equipped kitchen and a separate laundry/drying room. It has a large covered veranda with 180 degree panoramic views of the countryside. There are 2x Queen size bedrooms with Ensuites, along with a Queen & Double bedroom sharing a third bathroom. There is also a separate toilet.
Our spacious grounds and entertainment areas are perfect for the family or group booking.
To the west is the main snowy range & from the house you can look down the Thredbo valley to Crackenback top station & Mt Kosciuszko. At night you can see the lights at the top of the Thredbo chairlift. As we are in the Snowy Mountains region, you have vistas with and without snow depending on the season you visit, and you have the seclusion of the bush all around.
To the East we look across the Monaro plains to the Wadbilliga National Park & the coastal ranges above Narooma, Tilba Tilba & Bega.
As you are on a very large country property, there is no problem with parking the largest of vehicles.

Skiing

The property is just a 45 minute drive to the Thredbo, Perisher, Blue Cow, & Guthega ski slopes whilst Mt Selwyn snowfields are about 75 minutes away.
There is a Ski & chain hire store in Berridale 8km away, or alternatively there are numerous stores in Jindabyne, a 20 minute drive.
The farm house is well suited for a skiing holiday with friends & family. It has a large Lounge/Kitchen/Dining Room with a very hot log fireplace to keep you warm during your stay. The heat from this room is also ducted to all the bedrooms & bathrooms making the entire home very cosy. If you are worried about the CO2 created, our 100 hectare property is almost entirely
covered by bushland which breathes in hundreds of thousands of times more CO2 than the fire creates.

Bushwalking

The 100 hectare property has many kilometres of bush tracks which abound in native flora and fauna.
A beautiful display of native wildflowers to be admired while out strolling, walking, hiking, bushwalking or braving the more adventurous mountain bike trails on the 100 hectare property. Many visitors head to the creek valley for a change of scenery. There is a 100-metre drop from the ridge to the creek bed and Coolamatong Lake. At Top of the Range you are right among many of our unique native animals. These include Kangaroos, Wallabies, Echidna, Wombats & Emus. We also have Deer & Alpacas roaming around the property.

Star Gazing

As we are a long way from city lights the Milky Way, the Planets & Constellations are very easily seen with the naked eye. Just recently all the planets of our solar system aligned, & we were able to see them all.

Fishing

In summer, trout fishing in the lakes & mountain streams is also very close at hand, with Lake Jindabyne 10 minutes away, & the Thredbo river & Lake Eucumbene only 25 minutes drive.
