Perfect central location, beautifully renovated home with large garden

Set on a large leafy block, Paperbark House is a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom, fully renovated house only a short, flat walk to the centre of Healesville, and everything it has to offer. The interior is light, bright and modern, with polished floorboards throughout. With a beautiful aspect, views of trees and mountains and the abundance of birdlife, you will enjoy a relaxing stay.

The space
Make yourself at home in the large open-plan living and dining area, or outside on the spacious deck overlooking the large, private, fully enclosed garden.
There is a separate ‘snug’ living area with a large TV that can be closed off the main area.
There are three queen-sized bedrooms and two beautifully renovated bathrooms, one with a deep soaker tub. All linens and towels will be provided for your stay.
The fully equipped modern kitchen has everything you need, including pantry basics, otherwise, there is a Weber BBQ on the deck.
There is a laundry with a washer and dryer.

The Euro slow combustion log burning fire in the centre of the house will keep you warm, along with central gas floor heating for convenience. In warmer months, the house has fully ducted evaporative cooling.
We also have a fire pit in the backyard, perfect for watching the sunset and roasting marshmallows.
There are many native birds and possums that will visit at various times of the day and night.
Located only a 5-minute flat walk from the centre of Healesville, including Innocent Bystander, Matilda Bay, and Four Pillars. There is a large playground with tennis courts and a local pool nearby.

Pretty garden
Stayed there because our daughter was getting married in a Yarra Valley vineyard. Close to Healsville. Very quiet location. House compact. New bathrooms, very clean. Great shops in Healsville. Abundant bird life. Lovely trees, especially the maple & rhododendrons. Underfloor heating was great, as it was very cold at night & mornings.

Healsville House
Beds comfortable, house very clean, just a bit of trouble trying to regulate hot water in bathrooms, not too bad in summer, could be a major problem in Winter. The possums are very noisy at night, especially when your not aware of them. Cute but noisy on roof. Needs an extra TV maybe in front of dining room.

Providing more information at the property
Had problems with water.. it was either not warm enough to use or insuffient to enable us to have a reasonable shower. Needed much clearer information as to how to use it! Information should be provided in writing at the property as not all guests will be able to receive emails when travelling!

2 Nights in Healesville
Our group of 4 (one couple, one 2 year old and one senior) stayed for two nights. Heating and fireplace were fantastic, lovely backyard and plenty of kids toys and board games to keep everyone entertained. TV area is small but that was fine as we spent most of our time in front of the fire. Easy stroll for a coffee or supermarket (5-10mins) and about a 10min drive to the sanctuary

Wonderful house in a perfect location
The house is on a quiet road a short walk away from Healesville, beautiful home with appreciated small extras such as tea, coffee and essentials for cooking. Wonderful huge back garden which our little dog loved. Lovely verandah to sit on and enjoy a glass of wine over looking the hills beyond. Easy checkin, great communication from the host, would highly recommend

In the Heart of Healesville
An immaculately clean property set in beautiful gardens with a large secure backyard. The whimsical artwork throughout the house complimented the warm and inviting furnishings. We all enjoyed the fireplace each evening of our stay- and the ducted heating vents kept the rest of the house toasty and comfortable. I’d highly recommend staying if you have the opportunity! My only quibble would be the lighting in the kitchen is insufficient- we moved a bedside lamp to the bench for the duration. Thank you to the hosts for a comfortable stay which exceeded expectations
