On one sunny day, friends and now co-owners Rebeka Morgan from BuildHer Collective and Ivy Huang from Homes by Ivy bought a winery known as Carrajung Estate. They were looking for a project that wasn't just a build project but more than that, so began an epic renovation.

The property had so much potential but also had so much infrastructure, allowing for the creation of a getaway destination where guests could eat, stay, and taste the finest wines.

Carrajung Estate, now complete, boasts exquisite cottages, perfect for a cosy romantic weekend or a serene country retreat.
Guests can choose between 'The Lodge,' which offers modern comfort in a tranquil wine country setting that savours the vineyard views in an accommodating four bedrooms ideal for a larger group, or 'The Nest,' a charming one-bedroom cottage, the ultimate romantic getaway where couples can relax and unwind in a luxe oasis made for two.

Thanks to Rebeka and Ivy's skilled work, these cottages have transformed into the pinnacle of luxury accommodations adorned with bespoke Meir Shadow tapware.

Carrajung Estate truly encapsulates still moments, where time stands still, through 'sun on shoulders, stars in eyes', and relaxation at every turn.

Crafted for two, The Nest's kitchen offers the perfect space for meal prep for a night in or cooking up a delicious brunch.
Rebeka and Ivy considered tonality and how each cottage should feel peaceful and comfortable when guests stay at Carrajung Estate.
The kitchen zone boasts an exquisite design and a warm colour palette. With integrated appliances, guests can easily whip up any meal.

The choice to incorporate stone benchtops adds a durable yet refined layer while
The Shadow Gunmetal Kitchen Mixer with a pinless handle cohesively blends style and practicality. It pairs perfectly with a Lavello Gunmetal Black Kitchen Sink, complementing muted yet serene surroundings.

The Shadow finish celebrates individuality, ensuring each piece is as unique as you.

Rebekah underscores the importance of selecting visually appealing materials that offer a satisfying tactile experience.

Selecting Meir Shadow was a no-brainer. The colour’s finish has been crafted with depth that perfectly pairs with stone, timber, natural elements, and concrete. Its versatility and adaptability made it easy to match Rebeka and Ivy's chosen selections for The Nest.

This is where effortless style meets tranquillity. Designed as the quintessential romantic escape, The Nest is a private one-bedroom cottage ideal for couples. Its bathroom features Meir Shadow Tapware, chosen for its dynamic ability to change tones with the day's natural light, enhancing the ambience.

 

 

Out on the cottage's balcony, a stunning outdoor bath setting awaits. Guests can enjoy serene views and blend luxury with nature for a truly blissful retreat where one or two can soak all their troubles.

A charming four-bedroom retreat, The Lodge is perfect for a family getaway.
The Kitchen zone exemplifies the perfect blend of beauty and functionality, serving as a crucial space in daily routines.
As seen in 'The Nest' Kitchen, Rebeka opted for the same Meir Shadow Round Gooseneck Kitchen Mixer Tap with a Pinless Handle paired with a  Lavello Gunmetal Single Bowl Kitchen Sink to achieve cohesiveness across both cottages.

Complemented by cool-to-the-touch stone and Momo cabinet handles, the kitchen offers a sense of luxury at every contact point. For Rebeka, it's the thoughtful details that significantly enhance the space.

The kitchen elevates every user interaction with exceptional quality and durability. With a Meir Lifetime Guarantee on all Meir tapware and accessories, it was a no-brainer for Rebekah. The property need not worry about replacing the tapware; with the Meir guarantee, it will be there for life.
