There are properties that offer acreage, and then there are properties that offer a completely different pace of life. Set amongst rolling green paddocks, established rainforest gardens, towering palms and breathtaking mountain surrounds, this picturesque Upper Flagstone estate on 5.57ha (13.76 acres) delivers the kind of peaceful lifestyle many buyers dream about but rarely find. Privately positioned at the end of a long meandering driveway and surrounded by beautifully established greenery, the home immediately creates a sense of calm and escape from busy suburban living. Whether you are searching for a relaxed family lifestyle, hobby farm potential, space for animals, a peaceful retirement setting or a more self-sufficient way of living, this is a property that offers incredible flexibility while still remaining close to major conveniences. Winding quietly along the rear boundary, the beautiful sandstone-lined creek brings a sense of tranquillity and natural beauty to the property, creating a peaceful setting where you can slow down, reconnect with nature and enjoy the simple pleasures of country living. The area is also abundant with local wildlife, with regular sightings of quails, echidnas, koalas, wallabies and a wide variety of birdlife adding to the peaceful country atmosphere, while the creek itself is home to fish and further enhances the property's connection to nature. The ranch-style home has been thoughtfully designed to embrace its beautiful surroundings, with wide wraparound verandahs stretching around all four sides of the home and offering multiple places to relax, entertain or simply soak in the spectacular sunsets and calming rural outlooks. Mature palms and trees create a unique tropical-country atmosphere that makes the property feel established, private and incredibly inviting. Inside, the home is warm, welcoming and filled with authentic country charm. Soaring cathedral ceilings, exposed timber beams and feature brickwork create character throughout the living spaces, while wide windows and glass doors draw natural light and greenery into the home. Importantly for growing families or buyers wanting extra separation, the home offers multiple distinct living zones, allowing everyone to spread out comfortably while still feeling connected. The generous L-shaped lounge and dining area, complete with reverse-cycle air-conditioning, is positioned separately from the open-plan family room and kitchen, creating excellent flexibility for entertaining, quiet relaxation or accommodating larger families. The country-style kitchen has been designed with practicality in mind and features beautiful Tassie Oak cabinetry, generous bench space, breakfast bar seating, large pantry, wall oven, electric cooktop, double stainless steel sink and ample fridge/freezer space. Positioned at the heart of the home, it overlooks the family living area and surrounding greenery while maintaining easy connection to the outdoor entertaining spaces. A stunning two-sided fireplace adds warmth and ambience during the cooler months, while ducted split-system air-conditioning ensures comfort year-round. Beyond the home itself, the infrastructure already established here is exceptional. The property includes a massive 18m x 7.5m four-bay shed complete with concrete floor and additional 12m x 7.5m three-bay shed, both with Colorbond construction, along with stables, holding yards, nursery infrastructure, potential aviary facilities and fenced paddocks already set up and ready to enjoy. For buyers seeking a more sustainable or self-sufficient lifestyle, the property is particularly appealing with approximately 300,000 litres of rainwater storage across 10 tanks, a 5kW solar system, a greenhouse plus an additional shaded area - perfect for use as a nursery - grazing paddocks and plenty of usable land suitable for hobby farming, gardening, livestock or simply enjoying a quieter and more connected way of life. Despite the peaceful rural setting, you are still only 10–15 minutes from major shopping centres including The Ridge and Toowoomba Plaza, offering convenient access to Woolworths, Coles, ALDI, local schools and a wide variety of specialty stores. With Brisbane also within comfortable reach, this exceptional property delivers a rare combination of lifestyle, privacy, water, infrastructure and convenience - the kind of offering that makes properties like this so tightly held and increasingly difficult to replace.
