About this property

Cedar & Mist — Sauna, Hot Tub & Mt Buller Views

SUMMARY

Wake to morning mist rolling across the Delatite Valley, Mt Buller rising snow-capped on the horizon, and kangaroos grazing on your doorstep. Cedar & Mist — The Sanctuary is a premium High Country retreat on 43 private acres, ten minutes from Mansfield township and 30 minutes from Mt Buller resort entry.



This is not a standard holiday rental. Every detail has been considered — from the glass-fronted Finnish sauna with direct Mt Buller views to the handcrafted cedar hot tub, Samsung The Frame cinema system, wood-burning fireplace and fully off-grid-capable solar and battery system. Come to exhale.



THE SPACE

Cedar & Mist sits elevated above the valley with panoramic views across rolling farmland to Mt Buller and Mt Stirling. The three-bedroom, two-bathroom sanctuary sleeps six in genuine comfort — designed for couples and groups seeking privacy, space and something genuinely special.



Thirty of the property’s 43 acres are permanently protected under a Trust for Nature conservation covenant — preserving rare and endangered flora and fauna in perpetuity. This is land that will never be developed. Guests have exclusive access to all 43 acres —including 30 acres of protected conservation wilderness where rare and endangered flora and fauna thrive undisturbed. The native bushland within the conservation zone offers genuine forest bathing — an immersive, restorative walk among ancient trees that few High Country properties can offer. Walk the land, sit with the stillness, watch the wildlife on your own private nature reserve.

Keep an eye on the thermals above the valley — wedge-tailed eagles are regular visitors, riding the High Country air above the property.



The living room is the heart of the sanctuary. Three large picture windows frame the Delatite Valley and the snow-capped peaks beyond like a living artwork. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the space — the natural gathering point on cold High Country evenings. The 55” Samsung The Frame displays curated High Country artwork when not in use, and becomes

a full cinema when you want it, with Samsung Music Studio 7 sound filling the room.



Outdoors, the property comes into its own. Soak in the sunken hot tub under a canopy of stars. Rinse under the open sky in the outdoor shower as valley views stretch to the mountains. Gather around the fire pit as dusk settles over the Delatite Valley. Two decks —one ideal for morning yoga or quiet reading, one for outdoor living and entertaining — offer

different perspectives across the 43 acres. A vine-shaded verandah invites slow mornings with coffee and uninterrupted views.



The kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering at any level — cook for six or order in from Mansfield township, ten minutes down the road.
