Mr Croese said Carlisle Lodge features two distinct Airbnb accommodations that have reached the top 1 per cent of the platform globally for satisfaction and reliability:
‘Verandah Retreat': A self-contained wing of the main house, perfect for couples or multi-generational families.
'Cottage Escape': A new (2025), free-standing two-bedroom weatherboard guest house designed for families.
The main house, which was built in 2003 and renovated in 2012, overlooks Dawesley Creek - a favourite spot for long lunches, quiet mornings and year-round entertaining, Mr Croese said.
“We’ve seen everything here from engagements to quiet weekend retreats.
“Between the horse agistment and the Airbnb income, it’s the perfect setup for someone looking for a supplementary income while enjoying spectacular gardens and fresh air.”
Substantial shedding includes an oversized double garage, a barn with three stables and a tack room, a shearing shed, a machinery shed, a workshop, an arena, a round yard, raceways, and herding yards.
He said it was easy to fall in love with the property as soon as you arrive.
