Boyd Baker House Long Forest
Property Description
A rare, fully intact mid-century modernist estate, designed by influential Australian architect Robin Boyd and built between 1964 and 1966. Set within 600 hectares of protected bushland in the Long Forest Flora and Fauna Reserve, the estate offers an unusually private and visually striking setting, with no direct neighbours or signs of contemporary development in view.
The Estate
The property comprises three distinct buildings in dialogue with one another:
Baker House: the main residence, showcasing Boyd’s signature use of honest materials, clean lines, and a strong architectural relationship between interior and landscape.
Dower House: a smaller guest house, sharing the architectural language of the main residence at a more intimate scale.
Library: designed by Sir Roy Grounds, adding a second distinct architectural voice to the estate.
