“I love the massive open plan with the soaring vaulted ceilings and the extensive use of natural timbers,” Patrick Harper told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND. 

“Positioned in Hardy Road Valley surrounded by natural bushland and with the use of rammed earth and local timbers the home has a real sense of earthiness and being part of the environment.”

“I live in a rammed earth home myself, so I know the great insulation properties of the 300mm thick blocks; cool in summer and warm in winter,” Patrick explained. 

“The timber in the home was sourced when the Bussell Highway was opened up. The floors are all Sheoak, with the rest made up of Jarrah and Wandoo.”

Patrick told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND there is a potential to use the property as a wedding venue. 

“The facade of the original old dwelling that overlooked the entire area still exists on the property and the 300sqm rammed earth workshop is currently used as a pottery studio.”
