It just flows - Built on bridge pylons, Treehouse cantilevers off the side of a Sassafras Gully- it feels like a treehouse in the canopy of Mountain Ash and Blackwoods yet only 4 minutes walk from the quaint and enchanting village of Sassafras. It offers 3 Bedrooms: 1 Queen with floor to ceiling window with views across the gully, the sun rises beyond this window so morning light is glorious, with its own ensuite with bath and sky-window. 1 double bedroom with big window to side deck and gully with adjacent bathroom, and 1 single bedroom/work station. The house is open plan yet cosy, It has a lovely wood fire and there is a lower deck, side deck, and upper deck. It is a peaceful and serene experience. all is designed on three split levels.

About the host

Host profile image

I have been offering Treehouse to guests since 2014. I am an artist working in the public space in sculpture and move between Perth and Melbourne.

Why they chose this property

Sometimes this place is like a fairy tale, driving up the mountain when its misty, with the Mountain Ash in their ephemeral drapery, arriving at Treehouse and lighting the fire.. it will always enchant me, and I hope you too

What makes this property unique

It's a home built on bridge pylons and sits amongst the canopy. It requires constant love and I do most of the repairs and renovations myself with the help of partner, brother, and mates. The land is high vibration and thanks to the Bunerong people past and present.
