Bridgewater - Big Sky Retreats - Offering the next level of luxury accommodation in Bright and Surrounds

Spread across half an acre of parklike gardens and established trees, adjoining Brights famous Ovens River, this Resort-like executive retreat gives seclusion and magnificent bushland views.

With its subtle blend of a North American lake house vibe in a modern Australian way, this two-storey home, with all the modern finishings and encompassing five generous bedrooms all with their own private bathrooms.



We invite you to slowly discover the house over your stay as there are many delightful details and books to inspire and engage.

The first detail that will captivate you when entering the front door at Bridgewater is the breathtakingly, elegant spaces made up of a thousand small, yet impeccable, touches.

From the stunning and unique furniture pieces, the stately artwork, perfectly chosen light fittings, vintage decor pieces, all combined with tiny comforts that evoke the natural sounds, sights, and smells of the bush.



Indoors

Light Bright but with a sense of refinement, the interiors of this designer Retreat features multiple sitting and dining areas, so you can enjoy the luxury of having everyone together or steal a quiet moment browsing the beautifully curated book collection.

The common spaces are found predominately on the Ground Floor, with the heart of the home an open-concept fully equipped kitchen and family room where you can perch at the breakfast bar or share a bottle of wine with the wood fire glowing in the winter months, or perhaps cuddle up as a family in one of the two TV rooms and watch your favourite movie.

Its contemporary gourmet kitchen features chef-grade appliances along with an island prep area and butlers pantry that boasts our signature tea and coffee station.

The indoor dining space is perfect while the dining room offers a large rustic wooden table, and ample windows to the yard, its positioning also provides the perfect opportunity for the chef of the house to still be part of the fun whilst cooking up a feast in the kitchen.

One of the most unique features of Big Sky Retreats is the popular fitness space.

The converted garage space provides the ultimate multipurpose fitness and chill out space. Made up of a lounge nook inclusive of large flat screen TV where you can sit back and relax after a hard day of cycling, a personal fitness space equipped with commercial quality Star Trac Spin Bikes, Everest boxing gear, Physio recommended Yoga equipment as well as bicycle storage racks, and ski gear storage.

Outdoors

The extensive garden at Bridgewater is a heady mix of Australian Native scents and colours, stretching over half an acre.

Tucked beneath this shady canopy of gum trees you will find an abundance of magical places to enjoy during your time here.

As you step out of the back door you are welcomed by the undercover dining setting on the patio that welcomes the perfect setting for BBQ mealtimes.

Adjacent you will find the inground swimming pool framed with pool deck, sun loungers and divine landscaping. On the opposite side to the pool you will find a comfortable outdoor lounge area perfect for those Summer nights.

Meander further into the backyard along the perfectly lined pathway, you will be faced with the tough decision on which direction you should take. One direction takes you towards the gorgeous firepit, another towards the alfresco dining space where you can enjoy a meal under the stars.

The hidden Adirondack chairs invite you to bask in the morning sun or perhaps continue to stroll deeper to the back of the property and find Brights famous Ovens River, take a dip, and feel instantly refreshed.

Beautiful property the whole family enjoyed
This property is a must, clean and plenty of space for both our families to enjoy. A short drive or longer walk into Bright with the most beautiful scenery. This property backs on to the river. Look forward to booking in again.
