River Song – A Sanctuary by the Yarra River
Welcome to River Song, a sanctuary hidden among the ferns of Warburton — where forest, river, and spirit meet.
This character-filled weatherboard retreat is set on over half an acre of private, rainforest gardens, directly opposite the Yarra River. It’s a space lovingly prepared to help you slow down, reconnect with nature, and return to your inner quiet.
Affectionately called 'Temple of the Green Veil' by the Wheel Property Team, the home offers:
Two calming bedrooms (1 King, 1 Queen), each with forest outlooks
A reading/day bed in the lounge for quiet reflection or an extra guest
A fireplace for cosy nights (BYO firewood)
Fully equipped kitchen with cooktop, oven, and island bench
Soothing bathroom with deep spa bath
Hardwood floors, French doors, and peaceful, earthy tones
Features:
Handcrafted bath salts and eco-conscious products
Local herbal touches: fresh rosemary and lavender (when in season)
Housekeeping with a sacred rhythm
Spotify playlists to unwind
Outside the Home:
Towering ferns, cascading creek, and waterfall ponds
Covered veranda and outdoor dining space
Just steps from the river trail, mountain bike tracks, and cafés
Whether you're here for rest, healing, writing, or simply to be cradled by nature, this home offers more than just accommodation —it offers a temple experience and it offers remembrance.
Please note: External CCTV is in use for property security. We kindly ask all guests to treat this sacred space with care.
