Mountain home nestled among the trees

This timber cottage sits on a tree-lined street in North Tamborine, close enough to Gallery Walk for an easy stroll but wonderfully quiet. The front deck opens to glimpses of the Gold Coast, while the back deck looks into the forest canopy where you'll spot local birds through the day.

Inside, there's a kitchen with mountain outlooks, a bathroom with both tub and rain shower, and a fireplace for those cooler mountain evenings. The main bedroom has its own balcony, the second bedroom takes a queen bed, and there's a loft space with a futon. You'll find a piano if you play, workspace for remote days, and a barbecue for outdoor meals. The hosts keep local notes in the house and happily share their picks for walks, wineries and restaurants.
