Our guests tell us that having the en suite bathroom for each of the 4 bedrooms makes a huge difference and is much appreciated.

Enjoy the lounge and dining area with double sided Cheminee Philippe wood fire. Plenty of fire wood is supplied.

Cook up a storm in the kitchen.... we supply all the gadgets and crockery you could ask for. We love cooking and sharing food and wine with family and make sure you have all you need to make a special meal that you can enjoy with loved ones.

Beautiful location
Beautiful house with gum trees and roos in the backyard. Close to ski tube. Underfloor heating was lovely but made it a little too warm when we lit the fire! Every room has own ensuite which was a lovely luxury though water not quite hot enough so never touched cold tap in shower. Overall very happy would visit again.

About the host

Hosted by Andrea Forsyth

Host profile image
For many years we did the trip from Sydney to the Snowy Mountains. Hubby Greg loves to ski and so does our daughter.
We decided we should try a tree change and bought the White House & lived here and ran our house as a guest house until a business opportunity came up in Sydney and we relocated back to Sydney for work.
Finally after many years we have returned to the White House and are enjoying all the wonderful things on offer in this region....Greg is enjoying the snow fun in winter, as for me I am loving the rural scene and enjoying the great walks in summer.
We do have other business and work commitments which see us moving around a bit...however we do consider this home and really enjoy making sure our guests have a wonderful time.

Why they chose this property

We jumped at the chance to buy the White House, it is unique in that it is 5 acres of rural enjoyment but we are close to the township of Jindabyne and the ski fields for access is great for winter. Properties don't come up very often in this location so we thought we should to do jump in to the rural life .... we think it is one of the best decisions we made.

What makes this property unique

We love the fact that we are on 5 rural acres with breathtaking views and sometimes even snow covered. The house is warm with the underfloor heating so it is delight in winter to just enjoy.
There is plenty of room for all in our Residence.
We love good coffee and cooking up a storm. We make sure the kitchen has everything you need to get the day off to a good start with an espresso and all the gadgets you could think of to help you cook up a storm
What really works well for our guests is the en suite bathroom for each bedroom. We are often told how well this works.
Of truly special note is the screened outdoor Alfresco Room with the Weber Q - this is enjoyed year round by our guests with sun downer drinks and an evening BBQ watching the friendly locals drop by.
Cosy underfloor heating in winter throughout and air conditioning in summer ensures a super comfortable stay.
In Winter one of the biggest benefits during the busy ski season is that we past Jindabyne and all the traffic congestion that we can see...a 5 min drive to the ski tube taking you to Perisher is just perfect and if you are a Thredbo fan then it is just a 20 minute drive. This is really appreciated by our guests in winter.
