About this property

Beautiful Country Home. 5 min to Armidale, 10 min to University of New England.

This spacious newly built home is five minutes from Armidale but feels a world away. It is nestled in bushland on a large block frequented by kangaroos and is completely private. 'Summit House' makes a great base for excursions into the four national parks in the local area, plus the city of Armidale. The house can be rented as a two-bedroom or four-bedroom stay. Visit our friendly donkeys. Bring your animals too! Outside dogs are welcome, as are horses, but check with us first.

Beautiful and stylish home in peaceful location
This house is just gorgeous! So spacious and beautifully appointed. I stayed with family members including children and the layout allowed us to have different activities going on with ease. This is one of the loveliest places I've rented.

About the host

Hosted by Camilla

Host profile image
We are just across the road and are happy to assist in anyway. We respect your privacy, and will not visit you unannounced. Please contact us if you would like to meet, to visit the donkeys, or if you need any assistance. We also would prefer not to have unannounced visitors as we have a large family of four children, with a lot of comings and goings, so please message first. We'd be delighted to hear from you.

Why they chose this property

There is a convenience store only a few minutes' drive away, plus large supermarkets in Armidale. Go to the Goldfish Bowl for a great coffee and pastry, and try Signor Vitelli's for the atmosphere, fantastic pizza and other Italian speciality dishes. We love the bookstore The Readers' Companion and going to the Armidale Farmer's Markets on the second Sunday of each month. Try Fika for locally made gifts, clothes and jewellery and the New England Regional Art Gallery for an art fix or light meal.

What makes this property unique

The house is inspired by American New England architecture and is comprised of two barn-shape buildings with a central connecting kitchen and dining area. Each wing has two bedrooms (one with a king bed, one with two single beds), plus a bathroom. The second bedroom on each side is a large loft room with a bench window seat.

There are two separate cosy lounge rooms in the house, each with a cathedral ceiling and a fireplace. The emphasis is on an easy flow between spaces, with the flexibility to close off areas when needed. The house would suit a family, several families staying together, or a group of friends. In addition to wood fires in the lounge rooms and ceiling fans in the lofts, air-conditioning is piped through floor vents to ensure year-round comfort.

There is a piano, board games, children's toys and books for a range of readers. You will find a guide to hiking around Armidale at the house. Our favourites are Cathedral Rock Track at Cathedral Rock National Park, the Cascades walking track in the New England National Park, Gara Gorge, Dangar Falls and Wollomombi Falls. Feel free to ask us more about this.

The house has a fenced yard with an insulated double kennel, so your dogs will be safe and dry. Dogs are not permitted in the house. If you are travelling with horses, we can offer agistment for an extra fee, either in yards or a paddock. There is room for float, trailer and truck parking. Send us to a message to arrange what you need.

Please note that this is a new build, so the garden around the house is not fully established. Some planting has also been delayed by the dry season we are having (2023). There are however lots of beautiful mature gum trees around and it is a well-vegetated bush block.

For parents of young children and those with mobility issues, please be aware that there are short drops off the verandas on both sides of the house, plus stairs at the front and back entry points.
