The House

Centrally located in the Victorian High Country, Black & Bright is a two-bedroom semi-detached home in the heart of the Alpine region. It has a private entrance and is separate and private from the neighbouring house. With a modern eclectic take on early Australian pioneers, gold diggers, and huntsmen, it offers a unique and stylish getaway—ideal for two couples—in the gorgeous town of Bright.

The home is a single-level black corrugated steel and brick house with a cosy interior, featuring a soaring timber-lined wall and a peaked ceiling. It includes a modern fireplace for those cold wintry alpine days. Full of collectibles and curated interiors, she’s a warm, contemporary space looking out onto the Great Alpine Road and the surrounding hills in all their seasonal glory.

In the warmer months, at the end of the lane you’ll find a perfect lagoon to swim and raft in, along with access to the historical gold mining Canyon Walk.

The mighty Ovens River is just a 300m walk down hill from the house. The center of Bright is 1km from the house—their are pathways along the river and the road.
