When the sun blazes down, the hot winds fan in from the Red Centre and the mercury soars, walk in under the dense canopy of the rainforest where the sun hardly penetrates. Once under the canopy you will notice an amazing change in the temperature because the rainforest has its own natural air conditioning system to moderate the excesses of the climate. The hot dry winds lose much of their heat as they flow through the shade and pick up moisture from the trees and the cool, shady forest floor. So, that’s one jolly good reason for living in a rainforest garden. There’s another reason too. Rainforest gardens are very easy to maintain.

This simple 3 bedroom brick cottage with all steel frame on a 1,066 square metre block is completely surrounded by one of the prettiest rainforest gardens you could ever wish to see. There are cool and inviting roofed over patios both back and front and lovely paved pathways meandering through the garden and right down to the cliff edge in the luxuriant National Park on the back boundary. Just put yourself in the picture... A hot day, a good book and a cold drink... And a choice of nooks in the deep shade where you can keep cool!

The well loved and beautifully presented 3 bedroom brick home is appealingly decorated in soft neutral shades with big picture windows framing the myriad tones of green with splashes of colour that can be seen out of every window. The friendly open living design seems to suit the environment and the soft green dado in the lounge and hallway echoes the colours of nature seen through the windows. The kitchen, dining area and hallway all have green toned slate floors while the living room and bedrooms feature recently laid floating timber floors. Full bathroom, separate toilet and a laundry make up the balance of the interiors. Perfectly relaxing and easily maintained for people who seek a simple life in a beautiful environment.

There is nothing really missing for practical living here. Even your cars have full protection in a double lock-up garage. With all this nature surrounding, you might think to worry about white ants ... NO PROBLEM HERE! The full steel frame to set their little teeth on edge and let you rest in comfort knowing they can not do any damage to your castle in the rainforest.
