Sandbox House – An Architectural Mountain Retreat

Sandbox House is a breathtaking showcase of contemporary Blue Mountains architecture, embracing a glasshouse inspired design that softens the boundary between indoors and nature. Clad in recycled timber and framed by soaring ceilings, the open plan layout feels serene and gallery like, with natural light pouring through expansive windows. Every room captures panoramic bushland views, creating a peaceful retreat perfectly in tune with its surroundings.

Designed for larger groups and families, the home comfortably sleeps up to 14 guests across five well-appointed bedrooms. The master bedroom includes a queen bed and air conditioning, while the additional rooms offer a mix of single beds, bunk beds, and a triple bunk. The fifth bedroom includes one triple bunk (double + single) as well as one separate single bed, making it ideal for children, multiple families, or group stays. Underfloor heating throughout ensures warmth and comfort year-round.

The living area is designed for both relaxation and connection, featuring two large lounge suites, a high-tech projector with an electric roll-down screen for memorable movie nights, an 8-seater dining table, and a selection of books and board games. Ceiling fans in the living and dining spaces add to the sense of easy comfort.

The fully equipped kitchen includes everything you need to prepare meals, from an oven and electric stovetop to a dishwasher, coffee machine, toaster, kettle, and full set of utensils and cutlery. The home also features 2.5 beautifully designed bathrooms, including a luxurious Japanese wooden soaking tub, a double walk-in shower, and a convenient powder room.

Outdoors, the property continues to impress. A dedicated yoga and meditation platform sits quietly among the trees, offering a peaceful space to unwind. Guests can enjoy a cosy winter evening around the firepit or make the most of the year round BBQ for relaxed outdoor meals. A private bush trail leads directly behind the property to Wentworth Falls, while iconic Blue Mountains attractions such as Lincoln’s Rock, Scenic World, Katoomba Falls, and the Three Sisters are all within easy reach.
