The 9.2547ha (22.85 acre) block is situated in the shadow of Mt. Dryander (tallest peak in the region), embraced by two ridges and backs onto Dryander National Park, making this scenic property a very private and peaceful place to truly live the good life.
The property has two seasonal creeks which form most of the boundary. The main creek 'Deep Creek' is utterly stunning and has multiple private waterholes to enjoy during the warmer months or you could just take advantage of the recycled polytank plunge pool to cool off.
It is perfect for anyone with horses or someone who wants a small hobby farm, as the property is 85% cleared, usable land with plenty of feed for horses/cattle, etc.
The house is made from Hardwood and hardwood weatherboard and all buildings have been constructed to above Category 5 standards, which has made it possible for the properties buildings to withstand multiple cyclones unscathed, including cyclone Debbie.
The house consists of two large bedrooms with built-ins, a bathroom with separate toilet, large kitchen and open plan internal living areas with both polished hardwood/cork tile flooring and ceiling fans throughout. The kitchen is a good size with a large timber bench top area, huge pantry, large under counter storage cabinets and a gas oven/stove.
Apart from a large veranda out the back where the toilet and laundry are located, the house also boasts a huge fully screened front veranda that has been enclosed with waterproof screening and sea-grass matting on the floor to create a cosy and bug free outdoor living space, with a wood fireplace for those cooler winter nights.
In addition to the house, there is a powered cabin (22.3 m²) adjacent to the main house that is currently being used as a semi self-contained granny flat.The cabin is constructed of steel and is fully insulated, ready to be lined internally, it has a water pipe ready to be plumbed in to the main plumbing and would make a great granny flat third bedroom/guest space, but would also make a fantastic office or art/craft studio.
The 280m² shed is a world of its own and has been used primarily as a work shed for the boat builder owner. It is fully powered and enclosed, has 7 entry points and it plays host to the large solar bank and hard-wired back-up generator system, which make the property both energy efficient and resistant to blackouts.It also houses a Massey Ferguson tractor and slasher that is included in the sale.
Water is no issue on this property with two rainwater tanks and a very clean and plentiful bore that is also connected to a large pipe network that feeds into the main tank to keep the tank full during dry times and to irrigate the many gardens, veggie plot, orchard and the various other fruit trees such as Avocado, Star Apple, Orange, Chilli, Mandarin, Mango, Passion-fruit, Papaya happy and healthy.
To risk leaving the best for last, the house sits on the banks of a large dam/lagoon with an island, surrounded by native trees and shrubs, and a 99.9% cane toad proof fence. The fence prevents the toads from accessing the water and therefore stops the breeding cycle.
The water and seclusion make it a very attractive place for wildlife and in fact has created a sanctuary for water birds, birds, turtles and various other creatures you do not see every day.
