Spacious Home With Mountain Views - QUEEN BED

A spacious home in a perfect countryside setting for relaxation and exploring the natural beauty of Warburton and the Yarra Valley. Only 72 km from Melbourne CBD Warburton is a year round tourist highlight and must see destination for overseas visitors and Melburnians alike. I look forward to your visit and welcoming you to my creative home. The space My home is spacious, there are plenty of places to sit, relax and watch the world go by. You can sit on the back deck and if you wish use the OzPig (wood-fired barbecue) for a fire or barbecue (except on total fire ban days). Feed the parrots, wander round the garden and soak up the fresh mountain air and great views. In the breakfast / dining room there is a comfy area with plenty of room to sit and read a book, work on your computer or simply have a cup of tea and enjoy the view out the window. Use the kitchen if you wish. You are welcome to cook or pop your food into the fridge. There is a washing machine if you need to clean your clothes and line available. You can even book in to take a pottery class during your stay; it's all happening in my fully equiped ceramics studio out the back and I’d be very happy to show you around if you’re interested. I offer an Airbnb ceramics / pottery experience which is called ‘The Art Of Permanent Objects’ and you can search for this under ‘Experiences in Warburton’. Alternatively copy and paste this link into your browser and it will take you to my page https://abnb.me/SnOof1NH4Q There are many photos and examples of my artwork and my student’s work on my social media pages Facebook & Instagram - search for Cornell Ceramics. This spacious home is the perfect place to base yourselves while relaxing and exploring Warburton and the Yarra Valley. I have two good sized bedrooms available, so if you are a family of four or two couples wanting to stay under the same roof, then this could be your perfect place. This particular listing is for the queen bedroom, in the room there is a mirrored dressing table, large wardrobe, plenty of cupboard space and bedside drawers. There is an electric blanket on the bed as well as an extra heater in the room for your comfort during the winter months. This is a good option for those of you who may be looking to unpack and stay a while. The room overlooks the front garden, when in bloom there are views of a stunning camellia and a magnolia tree just outside the window. The afternoon sunlight and bird sounds make this an inviting and peaceful space for an afternoon nap. The second room is listed separately on AirBnB and is a twin / king room but still under the same name of ‘Spacious Home With Mountain Views’. If you are interested in this room, copy and paste the following link into your browser and it will take you to the page https://abnb.me/NuuRV5DN4Q Both rooms are simply and neatly decorated with comfortable beds, fresh towels and garden views. There is a large shared bathroom centrally located just a few steps away from the bedrooms. This main bathroom has the option of both a shower and bath. Basic toiletries are provided. My home is single storey, however for those of you who may have mobility considerations there are three steps leading up to the bedrooms and several steps down into the dining room, the rest of the house is all on the same level. Guest access Guests have access to the specific room they have booked, the large main bathroom, the kitchen, garden and deck as well as the breakfast / dining room. The breakfast / dining room has a long table that seats eight people, a continental breakfast will be available for you to help yourself to each morning. This includes Chris’s (my partner) home made jam. Which he also sells at the Waterwheel Information Centre marketed under the name of ‘Particularly Good Jam’.... and it is! There is also a glass cabinet with a selection of my ceramic artworks in it for sale, so if you’re looking for a souvenir of your visit to Warburton you might like to consider my handmade pieces. The breakfast / dining room has a two seater couch and a chaise longue positioned around a coffee table. This is a lovely quiet spot to sit and read, or simply enjoy a cuppa and gaze out of the window. You are welcome to relax in this shared space during your stay. You may like to sit out on the back deck, during the summer months when the weather is fine, this is a cracking spot. A variety of birds: galahs, cockatoos, king parrots, rosellas and kookaburras frequent the garden throughout the day. The birds provide much entertainment as they love to feed on the seeds left out for them. The cheeky cockatoos strut up and down the hand rail and along the roof of my studio as they establish their pecking order. I would not recommend you hand feed the cockatoos as their beaks could do some serious damage; however the king parrots have much smaller beaks and will feed from your hand with a bit of encouragement. From the deck there are views of Mt Victoria, Mt Bride and the established back garden. Feel free to wander around the garden find a shady spot to sit and soak up the mountain view. In the hallway where the bedrooms are located, there is a curtain covering a passage way that leads to the back of the house and our private bathroom and residence. Guests do not have access to this area this also includes the rooms directly off the kitchen. During your stay I'm happy to chat with guests and answer any questions I maybe able to help with. It's always interesting to meet new people. Other things to note Upon arrival I will provide you with a front door key so you are able to come and go as you wish. In each room I have compiled a folder of information about the local area, things to do, walking tracks to explore and local places to eat. There are also some additional brochures and flyers in the breakfast room for you to take a look at, I would recommend you visit the ‘Waterwheel Information Centre’ in the town for more details about the local area. If you are arriving by car there is plenty of off street parking and if you are a cyclist there is a rack on the veranda where you can safely lock up your bike.
