Elouera — "beautiful place" — is tiny in nature, large at heart.
Set among the bushland of Sierra Escape's 280-acre property at Piambong, Elouera is a first-of-its-kind off-grid tiny house built for two. Floor-to-ceiling windows pull the landscape inside; a cushy king bed, designer kitchen and indoor fireplace keep things distinctly un-camping.
Then there's the deck: a secluded outdoor shower, an outdoor fireplace, and a free-standing bathtub positioned for bathing under the stars.
