The River Stone Cottage
Cottage Features
The River Stone Cottage is a lovingly restored timber worker's house with two bedrooms, each featuring a king-sized bed, ceiling fans, and scenic landscape views. The living room side of the original double chimney has a true north wood fireplace, while the kitchen side has a gas cooktop and exhaust. The kitchen features a double sink set in a Spotted Gum slab top and an open-plan dining space. The lounge room has plenty of space to relax, and the corner couch can double as two single beds. There is also a daybed on the front porch for stargazing. The separate external bathroom, located off the back porch, features a large river rock and tiled shower with a Coachwood vanity, sink, and toilet.
Building History
This is one of six original timber worker's houses that have been restored in the Old Saw Mill Town at Brooman. The building is made of all local timber, including original floorboards, weatherboards, and Coachwood architraves. A unique wall feature above the main fireplace includes pieces of all the local timber species used in the original and restored construction.
Off-Grid Living
The property is completely off-grid and powered by a central solar system with underground 240V power. Water comes from the pristine rain, collected and stored in galvanized iron tanks. Hot water is provided by an instantaneous gas water heater located on the outside of the building.
Brooman Features
The old town site is set opposite a large bend in the Clyde River. The deep water extends for nearly a kilometre upstream, making it a great place for canoeing, fishing for Bass, Platypus watching, or simply listening to the dozens of unique and beautiful endemic bird species of this area. There is a resident mob of Eastern Grey Kangaroos that typically comes out at dusk. You may also spot Red-Necked Wallabies, Bandicoots, microbats, blue-tongued lizards, and Possums. The buildings date back to the late 1800s to early 1900s, once supporting a thriving community of up to 200 people. Brooman had a post office, school, dance hall, mechanics building, galley, general store, phone exchange, and cottages like this one.

Summary: Nice cottages done up well to suit variety of price points. All essentials covered and everything could be made to work. Seal on fireplace door broken off but had an ember screen and still shut. No smoke even with door open surprisingly. 2/3 gas burners on stove working. Cushions, blankets appear quite clean. General finish rustic but charming. River access not particularly obvious or easy. Quite a bit of small bird or rodent poop on daybed backdeck and a whopper of an ibis or pelican size poop over back deck table and chair. But we didn't use this area accordingly. Could happen real quick out in the bush. Overall nice, clean inside with fresh bush cut flowers throught. Cleaning fee may be a bit much given the situation. Wifi was sufficient.
