Gabion Hill - beautifully designed and deeply connected to the land | House in Glenlyon
5 Bedroom House in Glenlyon
Just 1.5 hours from Melbourne, tucked deep within tranquil bushland and cradled by the enchanting Upper Loddon State Forest beside a gentle creek, Gabion Hill is a place where time slows and the outside world melts away. Only a short 12-minute drive from Daylesford, this architect-designed sanctuary feels wonderfully remote yet perfectly connected — a rare pocket of quiet that lets you breathe again.
Celebrated for its striking stone walls and floor-to-ceiling glass, the home is designed to disappear into its surroundings, allowing the landscape to take the lead. Inside, a soft monochromatic palette sets a calm, grounding tone, with generous spaces that welcome families, couples and groups alike. The property sleeps up to 14 guests across five bedrooms, with three beautifully appointed bathrooms, including a separate self-contained studio that offers extra privacy for grandparents, couples or friends who love their own space.
Gabion Hill is tailor-made for unwinding. Spend slow mornings curled up by the fire in the main living room, or slip away to the second lounge for a quiet read or a cosy movie night. Wander the acres of private bushland, pause by the creek, or stretch out on the wide green lawn as kangaroos graze nearby and kookaburras call through the treetops. When it’s time to come together, the outdoor deck becomes the heart of the home — a place to share wood-fired pizzas, BBQ, celebrate long lunches, or simply watch the sky shift into evening before the stars take over.
Glenlyon’s charming village sits just moments away, with its tree-lined avenues, local wineries and the much-loved Glenlyon General Store for long lunches and gourmet supplies. Daylesford’s iconic spas, mineral springs, walks and dining scene are also close by — though it’s just as tempting to stay put and let nature set the pace of your day.
