This is more than a home; it's a living, breathing masterpiece. Crafted by a husband-and-wife duo with a passion for sustainability and history, every detail of this unique one-bedroom retreat tells a story. A second versatile space offers room to grow, while included plans reveal the vision for future expansion. Built from reclaimed and natural materials, this home seamlessly blends with its surroundings. Thick strawbale walls insulate like a dream, while marine pylons-once part of the Horn Island jetty-stand as testaments to time. North-facing design floods the kitchen with winter sun, while passive solar principles ensure year-round comfort. Step inside to discover a world of character: a red gum bathtub craned in before the roof was built, camphor laurel pantry doors shaped by nature, and a staircase crafted from a storm-felled Queensland maple. Copper trims, historic railway sleepers, and a stunning hand-carved marble sink add to the charm. Beyond the main dwelling, a rustic 6m x 6m bonus space offers a cozy retreat with a kitchenette, potbelly stove, and an open-air connection to nature. Thoughtfully designed outdoor areas, a greenhouse, and even sandstone steps reclaimed from Boggo Road Jail complete this remarkable property. Newton House is the definition of hinterland living, feeling miles away, however, only 10 minutes from the M1 motorway. This property has private access and well thought out, established paths through native regeneration. Newton House also has panoramic views of the Tamborine Hinterland. The home is your own private retreat. A beautifully compiled book details the home's journey, materials, and future plans-an invitation to continue the story. If you're looking for a home that's truly one-of-a-kind, Newton House awaits.
