Built to last
Cooranbong Valley is a mixture of weekenders and local residents, some with a long history of farming and logging in the area. Cedar, mahogany, turpentine and blackbutt are the most common timbers. This house is mostly cedar, a beautiful softwood. Aside from its warm honeyed tones, the low density makes it an ideal insulator inside and good cladding material outside. Its pleasing fragrance can also linger for years.
