This Is Our Story
DESIGN
The Sibbel House is not your typical holiday rental. It's an architectural house, designed & built in 1968. Owners Simon & Fleur are passionate about mid-century modern homes and live in another Sibbel house in Balwyn North, Victoria. After seeing so many amazing houses be demolished over the years, they set out to find and restore another Sibbel home to restore. After acquiring the home in its original state in 2020, they restored and renovated it, adding all the luxurious comforts, while respecting the incredible bones and heritage of the property. The kitchen is fully equipped with Miele appliances, Dishwasher, Kitchen Aid, Soda Stream, Air Fryer, Pots & Pans, trays for baking and glassware for wine & cocktails.
​
COMFORT
The house has been fully updated with underfloor heating, air-con/ heaters in every room, WIFI, new appliances, new bathrooms, sheer curtains and fully furnished by Zuster furniture. The property is set on almost 2 acres, with breathtaking views across the valley towards Mount Riddle.
ROOMS
The original layout of the home has been maintained, with a focus on family & socialising- cocktail in hand. The home has a very cosy, yet luxurious feel, reminiscent of the 70s when family, socialising, and a more simple life was achieved. There is a large living/ cocktail room with comfortable olive green velvet seating and marble finishes. As the focus is on relaxing & escaping, this room is also equipped with phone chargers & a 65 inch smart TV for when you want to take things slow.
