DWELLING:
Step away from the ordinary with this bespoke 'tree house', offering four levels of generous & versatile living spaces plus a purpose built, fully insulated workshop under the home. The thoughtful pole construction design, together with soaring timber ceilings & abundant flow of natural light, results in a real sense of immersion within nature, with expansive treetop views over the escarpment from several vantage points throughout the home.
GARDEN:
Positioned on a leafy 2,001m2 (half acre) allotment, there are four garden terraces behind the house, leading down to a gently sloping bush area which backs onto a council reserve & walking track. The rear garden features producing banana trees (lady finger & plantain), avocado trees, several citrus plus a range of natives including shady Moreton Bay figs. At the front of the home is a private, northern deck with lattice paneling and a carport, with space under the house for another vehicle & trailer.
LOCATION:
Ideally set at the end of a quiet, family-friendly cul-de-sac, the home gives the impression of a serene, remote lifestyle, yet has ease of access to all the benefits of Toowoomba city, as well as the Highfields district. For this reason, Blue Mountain Heights is a highly regarded suburb for those who value space, privacy & convenience.
