The Homestead
The Homestead. Your Private Estate on the Hill.
We invite you to experience Sēlah Valley from its most elevated perspective. Two bedrooms, separate bunkhouse, wrap-around deck, and the entire valley spread below.
The Homestead sits elevated above Sēlah Valley, commanding views that stretch from the valley floor to Mt Warning's ancient peak.
This is not accommodation. This is residence.
Two bedrooms wrapped in luxury. A separate bunkhouse for additional guests or children. A kitchen designed for those who actually cook. Living spaces that flow onto a wrap-around deck where morning coffee becomes a ceremony and evening wine becomes meditation.
Inside: expansive, modern, enveloped in natural light. Outside: the entire valley, 430 acres of rolling hills and rainforest, and Mt Warning filling the western horizon.
The Homestead is the exclusive choice for those who want space, privacy, and the feeling of owning the hill—without actually having to mow 430 acres.
Book the whole property. Bring your family. Host your closest friends. Disconnect from everything except what matters.
This is the Homestead. This is Sēlah Valley at its most elevated.
“The property was beautiful with flowing green hills and some of the tallest, fullest trees I’ve seen in a long time. You’re surrounded by mountains, a flowing creek, and so much wildlife. It feels like you’re alone in nature”
