Big Views, Small Upkeep – Finally, Acreage That Makes Sense!
Positioned high on 25.6 acres in one of Farnborough's most tightly held rural pockets, 195 Howes Road delivers a rare combination of scale, privacy and uninterrupted coastal outlook. Capturing sweeping valley views that roll out to Farnborough Beach, this is a property where the setting does the talking. Recently renovated throughout, the double-storey residence has been thoughtfully designed to maximise both aspect and functionality, with the upper level forming the heart of the home. Here, open-plan living and dining is centred around a well-appointed kitchen featuring stone benchtops and a walk-in butler's pantry, all flowing seamlessly to an expansive balcony that takes full advantage of the elevated position and coastal views. The upper level also comprises three bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a spacious master suite complete with walk-in robe and ensuite.
Downstairs provides excellent flexibility for a range of living arrangements, offering a large rumpus room, dedicated study and a third bathroom, ideal for extended family, guests or working from home. The home is fully air-conditioned with ceiling fans throughout, ensuring year-round comfort, while the recent renovations provide a clean, modern finish ready to enjoy immediately.
A key advantage of the property is the balance between usable land and low-maintenance acreage. Approximately 6.5 acres is cleared and highly usable, providing ample space for families, hobby farming, or additional infrastructure, while the remaining land enhances privacy, outlook and natural appeal without requiring intensive upkeep. This creates an ideal scenario for buyers seeking a genuine rural lifestyle without the ongoing maintenance typically associated with larger acreage holdings.
Externally, the property is equally well-equipped, with established gardens surrounding a private in-ground pool, creating a peaceful retreat. Substantial shedding enhances the functionality of the property, including a 10m x 10m open-air shed along with a 7m x 10m enclosed workshop, ideal for storage, machinery, caravans or boats. A 13kW solar system further adds to the efficiency and practicality of the home.
Set well back from the road, the property offers complete privacy while remaining just minutes from Yeppoon's beaches, schools and amenities, delivering an increasingly rare balance of rural scale and coastal convenience. Properties of this calibre, combining usable acreage, quality improvements and a genuine ocean outlook, are tightly held and seldom offered to the market.
