Ben, i know i over use the word 'Stunning, however this cabin is exactly that! As you say anyone remotely interested in architecture, design and indeed craftsmanship this is not to be missed. I for one would live there as a home in an instant. The showcasing of so much local talent and craftsmanship is integral to the experience. And that is before the location, views, skies and the bush is taken into consideration. A visit here would no doubt change your life...for the better! A big thank you to the hosts Ben and Christie, what am amazing place! A showcase for so many.
Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts here Keith. I’m right there with you. Where the wine fridge is I’d pop a European laundry and I’d try and squeeze the bathroom sink into the bathroom and then find a slap of beautiful Huon pine and make a writing (editing desk) where that little nook is, and I don’t think I’d ever leave!
Thank you Julia, I recently upgraded my camera and this was the first cabin shot with the new rig. Yes it is a cocoon of Tasmanian beauty. Thanks for the support.
Oh wow! Yet another beautiful property, perfect for a relaxing weekend away. I love the bath in front of the windows, but especially the skylights above the bed and shower - stunning! 🌠
Wow, that truly is a stunning & very creative cabin .. we are just about to start on our new bush retreat and this has helped provide great inspiration .. Thanks! JT
I want to go there! If I had one critique, I think it needs just a little bit larger deck with a covered portion that extends the living area with some nice lounge chairs and a coffee table. would be awesome to sit out under the shade or out when its raining.
This is truly amazing. I recently bought a block of land in the mid-north of South Australia and this is providing a lot of inspiration of what I could do with a tiny home (if I had the cash that is haha!). But still, this is a really lovely and gentle video of this gorgeous property. That bath! Looking forward to exploring your other videos. :)
Thanks for sharing Jason, Thats awesome about buying a block and so cool you got some inspo from this cabin. I can't wait to one day also grab a block and do the same! The bath was a point of contention but I think it's marvellous. Thanks again for the support and welcome tot he channel :)
I agree, These could easily be off grid and that roofline can definately support some solar panels. Thanks for the feedback, I 've just finished filming an incredible off gris retreat in north east Tassie. Will share it shortly, I think you'll like it! A fortified stone tower. completely off grid.
You need to add one small contemporary slipper chair (matching the sofa) that can either create an L-space for conversation at the sofa or be moved to face the sofa over the table for a second diner. 😊
There are some interesting retro design (1960s and 1970s) elements like the highly pitched non gabled roof, skylights, and exterior wood planks orientated vertically. However, the interior layout is odd with a bathtub in front of a bed and a bolt upright seated bench with a small table instead of a lower slung cushy sofa with built in end tables. I realize it is a cabin...but the bathroom would make more sense if it was walled off completely from the rest of the space... integrating the shower and bathtub as a single unit. That would free up space for a small dining room table to enjoy the view while eating. The raised wood stove is well designed, as is the kitchen.
Beautiful little cabin with lots of nice touches inside and out. Would have been perfect had they just dedicated a little bit more room to the sitting area and also also lowered the stove so as not to obstruct the view. Thanks for the video.
lots of things to love, especially the fireplace, bathroom, shower, kitchen, deck and bed. The sofa does not look that comfortable - and the under sofa storage is fine for suitcases - but is there any hanging storage?
I totally agree! Love all those aspects. Yes there is a bit of a consensus that a different couch/sofa area would be preferred, and I think I agree too. Thanks for watching!
Hey Ben, nice video. Great visuals. A suggestion for making your videos even better is to get a decent microphone setup, so your audio meets the excellent standard of the video.
Thank you so much, that is great advice and I have been cringing at the quality of the audio sometimes. Do yuo have any recommendations on a good place to start? Im a bit out of my depth with audio! Thanks again.
Everybody in the world should have one of these for free! Stop wasting money on wars and provide a free home for everyone! Then one can talk about civilisation.
If it comes for free people will became lazy, but it can come at a reasonable price, think about that the work put into building this needs to be paid.
People who could believe that getting a home for free turns people lazy are the first to be like that, as if that home doesn't need maintenance and care to stay inhabitable.
They forgot to include a comfortable sitting area. That built-in bench seat is not suitable for lounging. This cabin is apparently for people who prioritize bathing over everything else.
Amazing isn’t it. I love that hide of the fire place heating the bath. Have seen fairly rudiments examples of that for outdoor baths but nothing polished or indoors. Would love to see when you do that!
Good question, I’m not overly familiar with those terms or requirements the area around the cabins was cleared really well, and there were water tanks at each cabin plus multiple fire trails and emergency exits. Felt very safe. I imagine the HV council would have more detail though. 😊
I have watched this over and over, and I am going to use some of these design features for a cabin that I have in the works. I have already drawn it up, and will be working on it in the next few months. It is not as grand as this one, but will have some of the same feel, without the tub and bathroom. I am replicating the seating bed area, and the black kitchen wall. Can't wait!
Hey there! Thanks very much. I loved in Halifax for 18 months. Loved my time there! Thanks for the support and yes please come on down! Some amazing spots here (:
Greetings from Canada thanks for sharing this video unfortunately im just getting used to living in a shipping container home and so are my neighbors i have to plan my entry whenever i leave im afraid of the nasty letters in my mailbox 😮
Greetings Stephen. Love Canada, I lived in Halifax N.S for 2 years and loved it. Shipping containers are awesome, I've reviewed a few on my channel and plan to review some more soon. Thanks for watching.
I believe the biggest hurdle here is the fire danger of the bush area. It requires certain things like evacuation pathways, clearance etc. certainly possible le as you can see here
The pleasure is all mine. This property is $670 per night. But don’t forget that includes gourmet dinner and breakfast (for 2) plus a bunch of other special Treats. 😀
@@bennybnb btw mate, i hope you could discern i was joking. even with being connected to the rest if the world via the net, tom foolery is still part of tassie culture. regards from the nth.
Curves in a small home are a necessity. Emulate the interior of a yacht concerning design. I built the storage/built ins/tables in mine. All but the comfy furniture. Dont know how? Just go for it. Copy what you see. It will all work out.
Hi James, That's really interesting to hear. Would love to see your space? I would have liked the joinery around the bed to have curves and be slightly softer, to make it easier to get in and out of the bed. Thanks for watching and commenting :)
Hey Eden, I don't have the blueprint, but the architect is Maguire Device Architects. You could get in touch with them. Their info is in the video description!
@@bennybnb I totally agree, it looks really nice. Since I am somewhat lazy, I would install something more comfortable to sit on, but for this purpose of renting it out, it works. Is this some kind of Australian snake prevention how the whole cabin is standing in the landscape, I suppose so ;-)
@@bennybnb I think this is what I would love about Tasmania, having less dangerous specious around you. And yes, I like this personal touch - it shows ;-) Having a look at your other videos, I can only congratulate you! Very interesting locations and beautiful cabins. What I like best, living myself in a crowded European city full of morons: Landscape, a view - and pretty slim chances to see too many people any time soon. Perfect for me ;-) You won yourself a new subscriber.
The finish of the shown surfaces looks quality and the nature around it stunning. I am not really sure its very inviting for an older couple. The "couch" a bit to high, no entrance with a wheelchair, the wooden rim around the bed and a difficult to get out deep battub... and at a certain age i am not sure you like to climb naked out of the bathhub, while your partner is having a meal right in front of you ;D
Thanks for sharing your thoughts here. All very valid points. It owuldnt take much to make this wheelchair friendly. Perhaps something that may happen in the future. There is certainly a big push in the industry for more accessible properties. Thanks again!
What beautiful designed little dwelling. **I checked the booking website and people please be aware that the cute blonde featured in the video is not included.** 😢...😜
An incredible space misused ! Where you sleep? In the humongous bathtub? Never knew that a bathtub was so necessarily importan....that half of space was taken by the bath . 👎
I personally slept in the bed, but to be honest did nearly fall asleep in the bath too! It is a big bath but does only take up about 10% or less of the cabin floor plan.
Somebody really must hate "form follows function". I have no other explanation for that bathtub which basically screams "let me be the most uncomfortable bathtub that ever existed". Looks like a weekend retreat for rich people who don't have to bother who is cleaning the place afterwards (showing bath water, the roof windows, etc.). Talking about local and sustainable sounds like a bad joke here since we're still dealing with a house in the wilderness whose existence is 100% superflous since, I'm sure, it's only a weekend house.
Hey Annie, Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts! My partner and I enjoyed the bath. It's so deep you tend to just float in it, with the shape not having much impact on the experience. I'm not familiar with any airbnb or hotel that imposes cleaning on the occupant..:) I'm also not sure where you are located, but here in Tasmania, high quality tourism developments are key to our states growth and industry.
This is a classic example of the hubris of modernistic architecture. Here's a shiny black cube set in the wilderness. It doesn't fit in its surroundings. It proclaims its otherness. "Look at Me"! SMH
@@bennybnbthanks for asking! I didn't even look at the interior, and anyway that's an entirely different subject. It's the exterior that immediately turned me off. In order to be sympathetic to its environment it needs detail and a fitting envelope, but it has neither. Its exterior has been designed to be put into any place and environment... but this is a special place and environment. That's a disconnect. And the structure looks disconnected. It's a challenge to build something beautiful and fitting, but that's the ideal we must strive for. We can't all be great and original architects like Wright and Lutyens and so we should unabashedly copy the fine or great work of others, and be satisfied with original details. And be satisfied knowing we've built a beautiful and fitting structure. And be satisfied knowing that the world is full of many beautiful and fitting buildings that were designed in just that way.
yeah it looks nice n all but there should be some kind of decider between the ‘living / dining’ area and the bed. also it might be nice to stay there but there are too many spiders, creepy crawlies and snakes so wouldn’t be a place for me to stay. no thanks
This is brilliant. Great camera work. Couldn't stop gawking at how pretty and inviting the place looks

I saw the sloping roof and was hoping for a Green design. I want to see tiny/small houses as Green as possible, especially Solar Panels.
I agree, These could easily be off grid and that roofline can definately support some solar panels. Thanks for the feedback, I 've just finished filming an incredible off gris retreat in north east Tassie. Will share it shortly, I think you'll like it! A fortified stone tower. completely off grid.

Always trade offs in small spaces, and yes the bath is a focal point.
Such a beautiful architectural cabin in a gorgeous location, not far from Hobart!! 😍
It really is! Glad you could make it to this one! 🥰
Yeah great, because our amusement is more important than f*ing leaving the wilderness in peace.
Not gonna lie, I'm gonna steal this tub and fireplace design. But will put hidden coils so the tub heats up as well.
Amazing isn’t it. I love that hide of the fire place heating the bath. Have seen fairly rudiments examples of that for outdoor baths but nothing polished or indoors. Would love to see when you do that!
What are the bushfire regulations? BAL FZ, if so whats been done to address this?

Nice!
Thanks Heather!
I want one. Would move to Hobart if I could.
Come on down! :)
I saw it well. What types of wood are used for exterior and interior wood?
I believe the timber throughout is Tasmanian Oak. I think this is the timber at the front as well 😊.
It's not small. Always love Australian interior design.
Yes we have a pretty distinct design profile emerging.
Not sure about tub if water source is solely the water tank
I think the property is on mains water with the tank primarily for fire fighting.
Maybe this could be improved on by someone, somewhere, but to me it's perfect. Are there any plans available?
It’s a pretty unique starting point for sure. Architect is maguiredevine.com.au - they may be able to assist.
The bench is too high to sit comfortably.
You might be right sir.
That was my takeaway. Needs a cozier seating area for that view and fireplace.
get a foot rest!
Yep, interior has some faults

I think I last took a bath as a child and I’m over 60. So the tub is not a draw but the shower looks lovely.

Looks like a weekend retreat for rich people who don't have to bother who is cleaning the place afterwards (showing bath water, the roof windows, etc.).
