Inala, which means peaceful place, is the perfect escape. Nestled on 7 acres of native bushland, this architect designed home boasts complete privacy and commands spectacular views across to the Barrington Tops through its extensive North facing windows. Featuring open plan living with polished timber floors and vaulted ceiling the feeling is relaxed, bright and spacious and the perfect antidote to a hectic life. We have 2 bedrooms with king sized beds, one which splits into two singles.

The space
This unique mountain top location overlooks the Paterson River, a tributary of the Hunter River and extensive valleys below. The mists and clouds that envelope Mt George, will make you feel like you are indeed living in the clouds. The design of this home ensures that the views can be enjoyed from the living areas and bedrooms so you will wake to an incredible sunrise over your own piece of tranquillity.

Featuring open plan living with polished timber floors and vaulted ceiling the feeling is relaxed, bright and spacious and the perfect antidote to a hectic life. You will feel the stress of everyday life fall away as soon as you arrive. The outdoor spa is an ideal spot to relax and enjoy the views in total privacy while the open fireplace makes it a cosy retreat in winter.

Two large bedrooms include king sized beds, one which splits into two singles, can easily accommodate two couples or a family.

The eco-friendly, sustainable design includes natural ventilation, shading and rainwater collection to reduce its impact on the environment.

Inala is offered fully furnished including all you need to walk in and start relaxing amid some of the most spectacular scenery and wildlife in the Hunter region.

Speaks English
I work part time, my girls aged 18 and 14. My wife is a scientist researching the treatment of asthma during pregnancy. I especially like exploring bushland on a mountain bike or just trail running when I’m not tinkering with cars, electronics or computer programming projects. Lately I've become heavily involved in the NSW Rural Fire Service.
