Studio on Forktree is part of a contemporary home designed to make the most of its position along Forktree Road – where rolling hills meet glimpses of the sea and the sky always feels big. Rather than adding a separate holiday house elsewhere, the owners chose to carve out a dedicated studio within their home’s footprint: a place where guests could experience the same views, light and calm they enjoy every day. The studio’s architecture is deliberately simple – clean lines, natural stone and a soft, neutral palette – so that the focus stays on the landscape outside and the ease of being inside. Partnering with Blocks Road, the owners have opened Studio on Forktree to guests who appreciate a space that is modern without being cold, and restful without being remote: a small, well-designed studio in a beautiful corner of the Fleurieu.

Studio on Forktree is located along Forktree Road in Carrickalinga, a sought-after pocket of the Fleurieu Peninsula known for its mix of rolling rural land and sweeping coastal views. You’re a short drive from Carrickalinga Beach, with its long stretch of sand, clear water and relaxed, family-friendly feel. The nearby township of Normanville offers cafes, bakeries, supermarket and dining options – perfect for picking up supplies or enjoying a meal out. The wider Fleurieu Peninsula region puts you within easy reach of wineries, bushwalks, golf, coastal drives and day trips to other seaside towns. It’s the kind of location where you can spend the morning at the beach, the afternoon exploring or doing very little at all, and then return to the studio to watch the light fade over the hills and coast.
