"Gone-Away Lake" by Elizabeth Enright, 1956. Don't know if Aussie libraries have it; here in the States it's a library staple. Two 1950s kids find a falling-down Victorian lakeside... thinger where an elderly brother and sister are living mostly off-grid. Gentle and funny and sweet and nothing bad happens. There's a sequel "Return to Gone-Away" also.
