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.
