6 ACRES WITH PRIVATE CREEK
On the market for the first time, this property is the result of over 45years of dedication and thoughtful design. Every detail has been carefully considered, from the Feng Shui-inspired layout of the home to the exquisite Johnston River hardwood flooring throughout.
CHARMING EXTERIOR WITH STUNNING VIEWS:
The house is encased in Cypress pine chamfer boards with Spotted gum structure, complemented by 2.5-meter-wide verandas on three sides, offering breathtaking views of the entire property. The verandas are perfect for enjoying sunrises or sunsets, and the kitchen features a convenient servery window that opens to an east-facing entertaining nook.
INDOOR-OUTDOOR COMFORT:
Wind-down shade blinds on three sides of the veranda provide protection from the elements, whether you're shielding from the rain or the sun. The home currently has two bedrooms, with potential to add a master suite and ensuite, which would enjoy a north-facing aspect.
LUSH GARDENS AND UNIQUE PLANT LIFE:
The gardens are a treasure trove of exotic and rare fruit and flowering trees, many grown from seeds or seedlings. The property boasts an array of bamboo species, including Gracilis, Chinese, Dwarf, and elegant Black Bamboo, which serve as natural air purifiers and privacy screens.
You'll also enjoy fresh produce from raised vegetable beds and a beehive for harvesting honey. Among the fruit trees are bananas, Abiu, Grumichama, and Daintree Avocado, while mature Red Cedar trees add to the property's beauty. Orchids flourish throughout the landscape, and the variety of flowering trees, sourced from Brazil, Sarawak, China, Indonesia, and beyond, is simply breathtaking.
A SUSTAINABLE LIFESTYLE:
Built in 1992, this low-maintenance home opens to the verandas through four sets of double glass doors. Downstairs, there's a spacious double room-ideal as a studio or easily convertible into two guest rooms, with access to a convenient stone floor bathroom.
The property also offers approximately 350 meters of pristine creek frontage, with parts of the creek reaching up to 5 meters wide. A bore drilled to 7 meters ensures an endless supply of water. With no power or water bills to worry about, thanks to a robust solar system and purpose-built levee around the creek edge, you're all set for sustainable, off-grid living.
AND THERE'S MORE TO LOVE:
A self-contained studio situated away from the main house, complete with gas, a toilet, and an indoor/outdoor shower with septic, perfect for visiting family and friends (approx. 7.5m x 8m).
An additional lean-to (approx. 7.5m x 7.5m) ideal for storing a campervan, trailer, or mower.
A spacious tractor shed (approx. 8m x 6m).
Convenient school bus pick-up/drop-off at the property entrance.
