'Grails Cottage' was originally constructed in late 1800s and was owned by the 'Grails' family. Positioned on a flat parcel of land with a northerly aspect, the homestead comprises rural country character enhanced through renovation to render a lifestyle that fuses charm with convenience.
In 2019, a large scale restore and renovation project was undertaken to deliver the home as it stands today. Completely rewired and reposted throughout, original timber from the residence was repurposed to create the bathroom vanities, barn doors, and kitchen island table. The residence was fully insulated using the highest quality insulation and sisalation. All new flooring and 100% Australian woollen carpets were also installed. A brand-new septic system was also added to the property, ensuring long-term functionality.

Traditional flare is exuded with a wraparound verandah, refurbished with recycled corrugated iron from the original roof which was imported from the UK by ship in the late 1800s before Australia had the manufacturing capabilities.
