About the host
Hosted by Melissa
I'm a keen traveller and cyclist and have always been a city girl - until I fell in love with the beautiful town of Bright.
Why they chose this property
I designed, built and decorated Nine Steps and co-own the property with Rupert.
I love spending time at the house and just relaxing while admiring the views, listening to the birds, spotting wildlife, cooking a bbq and enjoying a drink.

What makes this property unique
Watching the ever changing face of Mount Buffalo from the lounge or the grounds of Nine Steps is always special. Spending quiet time relaxing, or the joyous chaos of kids enjoying the giant park that is Nine Steps always makes me happy. Ending the day lying in bed looking up at the stars is simply incredible...
