Ransome

Create your dream lifestyle on this private acreage property just 20km from Brisbane's central business district and within walking distance of the beautiful bayside. To the delight of locals, Ransome is a very small and quiet acreage suburb nestled between Chandler, Gumdale, Belmont. Enjoy the most wonderful of environments for raising children and secure a solid investment with exciting growth prospects. Landscaped and fully-fenced, the established gardens and grounds are surrounded by 23 hectares of Brisbane's Koala Bushlands program which supports many plant and animal species, including significant koala populations. It is difficult to fathom that this peaceful no-through road address is in such close proximity to Westfield Carindale, Moreton Bay College, Manly Harbour, Brisbane Airport and the CBD. All seven bedrooms are fitted with built-in wardrobes, including the master bedroom which also offers a spacious walk-in dressing area and spa ensuite, as well as a large parents' retreat. Time-poor executives can work from a large air-conditioned office and there is ample space to accommodate a home-based business courtesy of a smaller study and separate storage room near the double carport. The parkland-style gardens include a swimming pool, stable, single workshed, double-bay workshed, six-car shed, 30,000l water tank and pump, plus a 10,000l tank. Full rear access via a private road allows for large boats, caravans and motorhomes to easily be accommodated on site. There is an array of entertaining spaces for hosting parties, barbecues and other social events. Options include the garden pavilion, swimming pool gazebo, enclosed al fresco area, large deck, and covered verandas and patios. Alternatively, cool winter nights can be enjoyed inside the double-storey residence which is warmed by two fireplaces. The floorplan also features a media lounge, two living and dining rooms, an upstairs retreat, another study or nursery, a wet bar, two more bathrooms, a separate laundry and a high-end kitchen equipped with luxurious fittings and quality appliances.
