The 47.32 hectares or 117 acres farm has been home to the family for a generation and only age is seeing this quite stunning property come to the market.
A Darby Munro designed home sits on the cusp of the rise allowing views not just across the property but the farmlands and ranges in all directions.
The quite unconventional country home is an irregular asymmetrical style facade with large windows allowing full use of natural light. It has a flexible layout and is as suited to family life as to couple living. Munro designed the home to blend naturally into the position and use shutters and awning windows to allow the home to warm and cool naturally. There are air conditioners and fans and a stunning 2-way fireplace. The raw oregon and pine timbers are offset by the double brickwork.
Taking the country option of entering through the back of the house you come past a mud room, the laundry and storage areas before entering into the high ceilings of the kitchen. The oregon and pine ceilings flow through the open plan living and dining area before opening out to the terrace with a direct North East oscillation. The 2-way fireplace separates the living room and allows the lounge to become a separate private area. Moving along the corridor you enter the bedroom wing and you'll find 3 bedrooms, family bathroom and then up to a private master bedroom with ensuite and dressing room.
There is a huge pool some 16m long and 7m wide and 4m deep with a covered patio to enjoy throughout the year. The courtyard and terrace allow outdoor living throughout morning and afternoon.
The productive land has been used to grow watermelons and turf as well as grazing cattle and horses. With a 120ML water allocation and massive onsite storage with the dams, the property has been used irrigation for many years with a 6" mains running through the middle block. There is also a disused bore.
Only 83km west of Brisbane and 24 km out of Gatton the property is close enough to commute if you wish yet far enough away to be outside the hustle and bustle of Brisbane or Toowoomba.
The property is for immediate sale for $1,250,000
