Every acreage buyers wish list is word for word I want usable land, fenced with plenty of water and walking distance to town. The problem is, this type of property is just too rare but I have found it!
20 Ilkley Road is just a stroll to the Eudlo railway station, shop, tennis courts, skate park, local school and Sweethearts Caf. Eudlo is a picturesque railway town central to Palmwoods and Mooloolah, if you needed extra bits and pieces at short notice, take the easy 15 - 20 minute drive into Maroochydore or the 20 - 25 minute drive to Mooloolaba and enjoy the beaches.
Even though the current owners have never had animals on the property, it has been very well prepared for horses or livestock. A large dam to the front of the property provides ample water and there is a bore close to the house. On top of this, the house yard is fully fenced and the perimeter of the property is also fenced, allowing you to use the land from the get go and design a paddock layout that suits your needs. Established native trees have been strategically placed in clumps around the property to provide shade on hot days or shelter in rainy weather.
The three bedroom cottage style home is very warm and full of character with its solid hardwood timber floors, open-plan living and dining and great outer decks that look out over the property with nothing but privacy. The house uses its own tank water and the bore water is also available to the house yard. The native gardens have been designed to attract multiple varieties of birds and wild life. A great 12M X 9.6M shed and covered carport is also available and has been built with no expense spared. It has power that is separately metered to the house, including hot water system and electrical safety switch. The shed has two water tanks which are also plumbed to transfer water to the house and garden, and a large tank so that the shed can be a complete stand-alone building from the house.
With what this property has to offer already, we see that a buyer could easily move in and be more than comfortable but still have the potential to make it their own, especially with the flexibility the land provides. Now that the new town plan has been handed down, there is flexibility with second dwellings on rural residential properties. Subject to council approvals, we see that the property would also suit someone looking to rent out the cottage whilst building a dream home with the lands aspects and elevation in a very private setting at what is fast becoming a chic small acreage address.
