Meticulously maintained and clearly cherished over the years, this inviting home presents far younger than its age and offers a rare opportunity to secure a lifestyle property with genuine character and history.
Welcome to beautiful Stanthorpe, set in the heart of Queensland's picturesque Granite Belt. Positioned just five minutes north of town, this 6.8-acre property delivers the perfect balance of space, privacy and convenience.
From the moment you arrive, there is a sense of warmth and story here-this is a home that has been lived in, loved, and thoughtfully cared for.
The residence, rebuilt in 1974, offers four generous bedrooms, all with built-in robes. The main bedroom is particularly spacious, with room to create your own private retreat or sitting area. The central bathroom is unlike anything you'll typically find, featuring a unique internal garden and a sunken shower that adds both character and natural light.
Multiple living zones provide flexibility for the whole family. A large family room and formal lounge and dining area are divided by a cosy fireplace, complete with firewood storage, creating a welcoming space to relax in the cooler months. Glass doors invite natural light inside and open seamlessly onto the expansive timber deck, where you can take in views over the dam and established gardens.
The kitchen is well-equipped with ample storage, a 900mm gas cooktop and electric oven, and flows through to a casual dining area warmed by a second wood fireplace-perfect for everyday living. A well-appointed laundry adds further practicality with additional storage and bench space.
Outdoor living has been thoughtfully designed, with multiple entertaining areas to suit every occasion. Enjoy a relaxed BBQ off the kitchen, or host family and friends under the fully covered rear entertaining space overlooking the tennis court.
Adding to the home's charm are its unique historical features, including stained glass windows sourced from the Old Treasury Building in Brisbane, along with pieces from a former Stanthorpe shopfront-subtle reminders of the property's rich story.
Set on just under seven fully fenced acres, the grounds are equally impressive. With dual access from Old Caves Road and Mayfair Lane, the property offers excellent accessibility and flexibility. Established gardens weave through striking granite rock formations, and while they may now benefit from a little TLC, the original vision and beauty remain clear.
A fully fenced tennis court with shelter stands ready to be revived, once the heart of lively gatherings and long afternoons of friendly competition.
The infrastructure is a standout feature, with an enormous shed complete with mezzanine level, a fully set-up "man cave" filled with memorabilia, and its own separate access from Mayfair Lane-making it ideal for a home business, workshop or serious hobbyist. Adding to its uniqueness, the shed also incorporates timber from the former South Brisbane Railway Station.
There is also a covered vegetable garden for those wanting to embrace a self-sufficient lifestyle, along with a good-sized dam complete with pump.
This is more than just a property-it's a lifestyle opportunity with space, history, and potential in one of the Granite Belt's most sought-after locations.
