Cawarra' meaning By Running Water', sits on approx. 41 acres right on the Brisbane River, just 10 mins from the CBD of Ipswich and 30 mins from the CBD of Brisbane. This delightful property was envisaged and constructed by the current Owners in 1987 & with a sea-change now planned it is offered to the market for the very first time. The house and improvements were unaffected by the events of 2011, so this rare lifestyle opportunity is now available with complete peace of mind assured.
The home itself is delightful constructed with a mix of ironbark, silky oak and hoop pine and all emphasis has been towards the living and entertaining areas, all with their view to the river. The prominent feature of the living area is without doubt the double-sided-hearth fire place which offers comfort and ambience in winter. There is a separate formal lounge / dining room, study, family room and media room, 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The house yard features a drive-through double garage with mezzanine level and 3 phase power, with adjoining pavilion overlooking the flood lit full size tennis court. There is also an established and extensive orchard & vegetable patch which is all fully irrigated.
The other prominent features and improvements to the property are:
* Riparian rights to the Brisbane River;
* 20 megalitre water licence is also available;
* 8 stage centrifugal pump on the river running off 3 phase power - all 41 acres can be irrigated;
* 2 x 5000 gallon tanks connected to the house, with river water pumped to a 5000 gallon concrete holding tank to gravity feed to house and gardens
* 2 dams;
* 4 bay farm shed, with loading ramp and holding yards;
* Fully fenced for cattle, with approx 10 acres fenced (2.8m high) for deer
With genuine heart-ache, my Owners are downsizing to something smaller and they encourage your inspection of this unique property which has brought them such pleasure & joy over many years.
