Private Eco-Resilient Retreat in Captain Creek
Discover sustainable living and modern comfort at 1006 Murphy Road, a thoughtfully crafted retreat set on 40 private acres, directly backing onto Eurimbula National Park.
Built with a durable steel frame and compressed cement sheet construction, this home is designed for low-maintenance living in Queensland's unique climate. Inside, high ceilings, louvres, and large screened windows invite natural light and breezes throughout the one-bedroom layout, while full insulation and a Nectre wood-burning fireplace ensure comfort year-round.
The well-appointed kitchen features a gas cooktop and electric oven, complemented by a Solarhart hot water system and a 2kW solar power system feeding back to the grid. The main bathroom is paired with two eco-friendly Green Loo toilets, plus the indulgence of an outdoor hot-water shower and bath for bathing under the stars.
Expansive 60m2 of decks provide sunlit winter spots and shaded summer relaxation zones. A 22,000L water tank services the main home, while the self-contained caravan/guest house "The Shack" offers its own 6,000L tank, kitchen, screened porch, and firepit-perfect for visitors or extended stays.
Connectivity is taken care of with Sky Muster NBN and free-to-air satellite TV.
The landscape is alive with lemon-scented gums, grass trees, cycads, and abundant wildlife-from wedge-tailed eagles to pretty-faced wallabies. A fenced house yard provides security for pets, while a seasonal three-way creek system adds to the natural charm.
Despite its peaceful seclusion, you're just 20 minutes from Agnes Water and Seventeen Seventy for beaches, schools, and services, and around 80 minutes from Bundaberg or Gladstone.
