About this property

The Providence Barn

Nestled on six acres of secluded natural bushland amidst the native birdlife and wildlife of the Yarra Valley lies the delightful Providence Barn. The two bedroom provincial French style dwelling is constructed from pitted limestone and bespoke recycled timber with antique fittings.The self contained barn style home contains a modern bathroom and fully equipped kitchen. The king sized master bedroom in the cozy loft offers views over the natural landscape and garden. The Providence Barn is surrounded by a cottage garden with an abundance of flowers and native shrubs that attract birds, filling the atmosphere with a symphony of birdsong. An outdoor bathtub is nestled in the garden for a relaxing soak within nature. The barn offers comfort all year round with a rustic circular woodburner and reverse cycle air conditioning. With quality appliances and rustic ambience it is perfect for romantic weekends and getaways.

Central to Healesville, Gembrook, Warburton and Gruyere the Providence Barn is the perfect location for exploring the wineries of the Yarra Valley and the artistic and culinary destinations of the region. Local activities include cycling the Warburton Rail Trail, bushwalking at the nearby Kirth Kiln State Forest, visiting the Healesville Wildlife Sanctuary and enjoying the local farmer’s markets. Seasonal tobogganing on Mount Donna Buang in winter and exploring the Blue Lotus Water Garden in summer are popular local activities.

Wonderful Stay

A simply beautiful place to stay. Just the views from the lounge room windows are spectacular enough, but having wonderful and caring hosts offering such a place of comfort and charm made for a special holiday. Highly recommend.

A lovely retreat -30 minutes from Healesville. Lots of interesting nooks and and crannies including an outdoor bath and shower. Massive windows with an inviting lounge to enjoy the gums and cottage garden. The timber, stone work, high ceilings and beams are great features. Well catered for- well done!

Cant wait to go back!! 🤗

What a beautiful part of Victoria.. fresh air, trees, greenery and a cute and cosy place to stay. We cant wait to come back to this property to get away from our busy lifestyle. We loved going for a walk to get firewood and starting the fireplace for warmth. Such a pleasent place to stay at, would highly recommend it. 😍
