About this space

Tucked into 46 acres of rolling pasture and native bushland, this rustic timber farmhouse is a warm, welcoming location with rich textures and cinematic scale. Located in Nillumbik, just outside Melbourne, the property combines handcrafted timber architecture with panoramic views, multiple shoot zones, and natural light in every direction.

Inside, the house is layered with a unique blend of timber varieties—walls, floors, beams, and cabinetry that shift from rich warmth to soft grain depending on the light. This textured base makes it an ideal backdrop for fashion, lifestyle, interiors, or wellness shoots that call for a grounded, natural aesthetic. With four bedrooms, two expansive bathrooms, a light-filled attic, and both a playroom and rumpus space, the layout supports multi-scene shoots or editorial storytelling that moves through family, leisure, or retreat-style narratives.

The charm continues outdoors. A 500-metre sweeping driveway curves past a dam and grazing kangaroos, creating an arrival experience that instantly sets a rural tone. Up the hill, a pool and spa area on a timber deck delivers a dramatic, elevated backdrop—perfect for campaign hero shots, slow living content, or high-summer lifestyle shoots.

Among the pine trees, a double-storey treehouse offers a whimsical, storybook-style vignette. With ample shed space, a large laundry, and an adjoining indoor lounge for client hold or crew downtime, this property is both beautiful and functional.

Half of the acreage is open green paddock; the other half is full bush—giving photographers and filmmakers access to a rich range of backdrops across one controlled location. There’s Wi-Fi, air-conditioning, and a fireplace inside, ensuring comfort for year-round shooting, and easy access for equipment and vehicle support.

Rustic Timber Farmhouse is a shoot location with soul—quiet, character-filled, and ready for everything from product campaigns to long-form film.
