Mastersell Australia - Gundagai

<p>The first thing you notice about the cosy country homestead known as "Little Minjary" situated at 1236 Grahamstown Road Mount Horeb/Grahamstown NSW is that it possesses a timeless elegance. The very special rustic dwelling with its simple Snowy Mountains steep &amp; high roof could have come straight from the background of one of Tom Roberts' series of paintings featuring "Wood Splitters." The ageless charm has been achieved by the selection of traditional construction materials external walls of either rammed earth or weatherboard &amp; internal walls of rammed earth or timber; wide wraparound verandah with simple timber post-and-beam construction; &amp; of course, corrugated iron roofing. The 'pisé de terre' construction (French for pounded or rammed earth) provides the unique character of the stunningly beautiful residence with its earthy tones &amp; gentle rounded corners. Pisé (for short) involves ramming moist earth into formwork &amp; then compressing the moist material. This ancient building method provides many benefits: High thermal mass &amp; insulation for sound &amp; temperature control; pleasant humidity (due to the capillary action of the earth) low cost; environmental sustainability (production using Pisé requires only a small percentage of the energy of other solid materials such as bricks &amp; reinforced concrete &amp; no transport); non-harmful deconstruction &amp; recycling; freedom from modern toxic chemicals that harm the health &amp; environment (&amp; absorbs any pollutants); antibacterial; allergy-free; neutral pH (so kind to the skin); solid strength &amp; durability; fire resistance; pest resistance; compatibility with other materials; ease with which any cracks can be repaired; natural colour &amp; textural variations; organic beauty that is in harmony with the natural surroundings &amp; does not age.
