10/278A MULVENA ROAD Larnook, 2480 NSW
Living in Harmony
Set within the peaceful Elysian Farm company titled community, this architect-designed 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom home is a rare offering immersed in nature, with exceptional 180 degree views stretching across the mountains and valleys to the North, East and South.
The 240-acre community comprises just 11 shares, creating an intimate and deeply connected rural setting. Each share includes a 40m-radius building envelope around the home, plus an area of exclusive-use land for farming or regeneration. The land is approximately 10 acres in total. Around one-third to one-half of the community is protected conservation land, cared for in partnership with the Biodiversity Conservation Trust, with annual grants supporting ongoing forest management and regeneration.
Perched on gently sloping land and backed by steep hills cloaked in subtropical rain and cloud forest, the property feels beautifully held by the mountain. The extraordinary diversity of flora and fauna is matched by the community's strong commitment to custodianship of this rare landscape.
Constructed from a beautiful mix of mudbrick, corrugated iron and timber board-and-batten, the home has a distinctly grounded, handcrafted character. Rose gum ceilings, milled from timber harvested on the house site, add another layer of connection to its setting.
At the heart of the main house is a gorgeous, flower-filled paved courtyard with a pizza oven and cooling water features, around which the home has been thoughtfully designed. Four bedrooms and two bathrooms are connected by covered walkways, creating a wonderful sense of privacy while maintaining an easy connection to nature.
The country-style kitchen combines a gas stove along with a cast-iron range stove with wetback, providing additional hot water, a dishwasher and plenty of bench space. It opens onto a wide deck overlooking the spectacular landscape. Timber, corrugated iron and natural materials create a warm, relaxed aesthetic, while high ceilings and exposed beams keep the interiors light, cool and airy.
The living room features floor-to-ceiling east-facing windows framing the views, a combustion heater and beautiful timber floors that continue throughout the home.
A separate, self-contained studio provides exceptional flexibility, with its own bedroom, ensuite, kitchen, living area and private deck. Cathedral ceilings, abundant windows and a combustion heater create a light-filled retreat with its own beautiful outlook.
Outside, the property offers a four-bay machinery shed, a 2 bay garage and double carport, separate shared laundry, established orchards, garden beds and dam water supply. The entire property is fully off-grid.
A truly special rural property where thoughtful architecture, self-sufficient living and extraordinary natural beauty come together within a community dedicated to protecting the land for generations to come.
NB: In the interest of protecting native wildlife, cats and dogs are not permitted.
